Herbal Recipe of the Month:
Fall/Winter Tea Blend
A nourishing tea to boost your immune system
 
1 part licorice root
1 part burdock root
1 part dandelion root
1 part astragalus
½ part ginger root
Blend the herbs and store in a glass jar.  Use one teaspoon of this blend per cup of boiled water. 
Remember, a 'part' can be whatever you want (teaspoon, tablespoon, scoop, etc).
Store tea blend in a cool place.  To brew a cup, use 1 heaping tablespoon per 8oz water.
Let steep for at least 20 minutes (the longer the better!), strain and enjoy.

For a more potent treatment, decoct the herbs - add 1 heaping teaspoon per cup of water to a
pot.  Bring to a boil, turn down heat and simmer for 20 - 30 minutes.  Strain and enjoy.

**For more on herbal tea making, join us on October 23rd for the Herbal Teas workshop.
