Tea Zone

Now that the weather is warmer we should all be hydrating more. Unfortunately water sometimes isn't as tempting as a sugary soda or bottled beverage. A great way to make H20 a bit more exciting is to make your own iced tea blends using healthful herbs and flowers. According to Web MD, the bestl homemade teas include a healthy green, a fragrant herb, and one or more beautiful flowers. For example: dandelion leaves, lemon blossoms, and mint make a perfect summer infusion. Sweeten this brew with stevia and toss it into your reusable water bottle and instead of hitting the Diet Coke machine during your mid-afternoon break, sip this healthful, delicious brew. It's good for your body AND your budget! 

An assortment of delicious tea recipes can be found at Herb Companion and on the Frontier Natural Products Coop website!  Do you have some iced tea flavor combinations YOU can't get enough of?
