Hibiscus Lemon Verbena and Ginger Tea

- Serves 6
I’ve made tea with lemon verbena alone, but this combination of ingredients has become my favorite tea to sip on after meals. The jamaica (hibiscus, in English) is rich in vitamin C, the lemon verbena relieves stress, and the ginger aids digestion - making it the perfect after dinner drink.
Ingredients
- 1 handful dried jamaica, or hibiscus flowers shopping list
- 1 handful fresh lemon verbena leaves, torn shopping list
- 2 T chopped fresh ginger shopping list
- 6 c. water shopping list
- honey, if desired shopping list
How to make it
- Combine herbs and fold into a cheesecloth - secure with string.
- Bring 6 cups of water to boil. Remove from heat, and add the bundle of herbs.
- Let steep for 5 minutes, remove herbs and serve! Offer honey if you desire, although I like this tea just the way it is - tart! This serves 6 people one cup of tea.
