I find that people are either devout coffee drinkers or dedicated tea aficionados. I myself fall into the tea category, as my pantry is overflowing with various flavors of tea. But now that Spring has arrived, I’m inspired to make my own home-brewed tea with fresh herbs and test out different combinations. Below, you’ll find my top three favorite homemade herbal teas, but other yummy herbs like basil, chamomile flowers, rosemary, thyme, verbena, and sage are edible as well, so feel free to experiment with them too! Peppermint tea : Take 4-5 washed mint leaves

(use 6-8 if you’re making a pot), put in a cup of boiling hot water, and cover with either a mug cover or tiny plate to allow the mint leaves to infuse the water. Let the tea stand for about five to ten minutes before drinking. You can either remove the leaves with a spoon or enjoy the tea with the leaves in the cup. Add a bit of honey or agave nectar for sweetness. Here are some more recipes!
