Don’t just drink teas for taste and comfort, consider how much nutritional boost you are getting from all those minerals in a soluble form.   So easy to grow gynostemma, chamomile, Echinacea, various mints, leaves of strawberry, raspberry, blackberry, blueberry, wineberry, not to mention the wild stuff like linden leaves, mulberry, goldenrod, and such.  I opt for home grown as much as possible just because I’m frugal and I like to know how it was grown so it is safe and pesticide free.

I have not considered that prior. That kind of opens a whole new realm now, the rabbit hole deepens. Thank you for giving me that nugget of wisdom. :)

I’m an Irish Black lover! But when it comes to tea I am all in. Earl Grey, Mango Black, Tropical. Whatever!!!  Never go wrong with a good cup of tea!
