Healthy Herb Tea From Your Garden Recipe
Below I list some of the loveliness that you can pick from your garden to make a delicious and healthy herb tea with. Whether you drink it hot or cold or infuse it with bubbles to make a refreshing fizzy drink (Not the healthiest I know but infinitely better than Coke and other sugary drinks.) Fresh from the Garden Herb Ice Tea Champagne.
Method:
Pick or buy any or all of the suggested ingredients,
infuse it with hot water (not boiling to preserve vitamins and minerals) for about 15 to 30 minutes,
strain and add fresh lemon juice and pure honey or organic Canadian Mable Syrop to taste,
drink as is or add some hot but not boiling water for a calming pre-sleep drink and on cold days,
or leave it out to cool down for iced tea
or carbonate it for …
The healthiest warm tea or best fizzy drink you have ever tasted and/or given to your loved ones! (other than Kombucha)

A slither fresh chilli (or more – it wakes up your entire system : )
Basil
