Sayonara Sniffles!

                                                                                                                (gator foot = good luck)

  

So, the taste tester and I came down with a case of the sniffly bitts this last week. I decided to come up with a warm and cozy concoction to try and clear it all up. Not only is the tea delicious, but with three doses both of us are feeling much better. One more dose should do it, and we'll be right as rain! 

                                      
Sayonara Sniffles Tea

¼ cup Chamomile 

3 Tbls. Black Tea

2 Tbls. Lemon Balm

2 Tbls. Peppermint 

Honey

Lemon

Measure and combine herbs. Press with a mortar and pestle, releasing all the yummy goodness. While preparing herbs, its best to think happy thoughts of health and wellness. Ready a tea pot, and fill a mesh tea ball with herbal mixture. Steep the tea for approximately 3 minutes. Breathing in the lovely aroma also helps to open up the sinuses and congestion. After the tea is steeped, finish your cup with a bit of honey and lemon (no milk!). 

Recipe should yield approximately 4-5 servings. Store mixture in a glass jar or air-tight container.
