Sage tea

After reading that one could make an herbal tea from sage, I decided to try it with some of the sage that grows in our garden. It tastes alright, I would even say that it is quite good... my girlfriend on the other hand didn't like it. I wonder if it works with dried sage too...

Dried sage works fine for tea. Probably the prefered type, actually. If using fresh, it helps to bruise it well before steeping about 5 minutes. It's good for headaches and tension.

Thanks for the info. I will dry my sage pretty soon and give dry sage a try for tea.

The picture with the teapot and the teacups are very nice.

Did you know that sage tea is'nt anything new? Aboriginal's forage for wild sage and have been making tea for years. I found this out when working at a native agency and one of the clients made sage tea.
