Video Discription |
My very favorite summer drink to stay calm, cool and collected during these hot days. This is a mini class on how to make your own tea using herbs and flowers to calm the anxiety and heal digestion.
I wanted to share the healing properties of the herbs and flowers I have in here with you. I want, for you, to be your own best healer, armed with as much knowledge as possible, so you can be in control of your health.
I vary this recipe up, depending on what I have available. I grow yarrow, lemon balm, chamomile and fresh mint in my garden during the summer and then dry it so I can use my own throughout the winter in hot teas Sometimes I don't have enough lemon balm to use it every few days, throughout the summer, so I buy it in bulk from Frontier Herbs.
I source most of my herbs and flowers, in bulk, from them, as well, because I make A LOT of this for my family and offer it to every single guest that comes over during the summer. If you're on your own, you can buy in smaller quantities so that you have the freshest plants available to you. I'd also recommend cutting the quantities by half, if there are just 1-2 of you at home.
All of these flowers and plants have medicinal qualities, which I'll share at the end of the recipe.
RECIPE DETAILS
1 gallon of filtered or spring water
1 cup fresh mint or 2 tbsp dried
1/4 cup linden flowers
1/8 cup dried or fresh hibiscus flowers
2 tbsp chamomile flowers dried or fresh
1 tbsp lemon grass
1 tbsp lemon balm, fresh or dried
2 tbsp rose hips or dried rose buds
1 tbsp dried yarrow flowers or leaves, optional
skin of 1 lemon, lime, orange or tangerine, optional
Or, if you're having a hard time finding these loose herbs, there are literally TONS of different kinds of herbal teas you can find at the store. I've been using Celestial Seasonings 'Red Zinger' teabags for years. I just pop 6-8 of those in water in put out in the sun for an hour or 2. If I'm missing some of these ingredients, I'll throw in a ginger-lemon teabag or root around in my tea basket for other interesting-looking teas to try out. It all tastes great.
The only caution I would offer is to stay away from anything with black tea or caffeine in it. The healing effects were looking for with this concoction is for healing and cooling the nervous system, healing the adrenals, and soothing the stomach and digestive system. Black tea is counter-active to these goals.
Add any of the above-listed ingredients you choose, into your water, screw on a loose top and set out on your doorstep for an hour up to 3. You probabaly don't want to go for more than 3, as the herbs will cook too much and may begin to rot.
Once 'cooked', enjoy a glass with ice or store in your fridge for up to 5 days. I usually let the herbs sit in the tea and just strain as I go, just because I'm usually too lazy to do it all at once, but it's probably easier to do it upfront and save yourself time as you drink from your bigger pitcher or jar. |
