A Floral Spring Cleansing Herbal Tea
Ingredients
*Use organically-grown and/or wild-crafted ingredients when possible.
- 2 parts lemon balm
- 1 part calendula flowers
- 1 part dandelion leaf
- 1 part jasmine flowers
- 1 part red clover blossoms
- 1 part rose petals
- 1/4 part lavender flowers
Method
- Measure the parts of each of the herbs (by volume not weight) listed and mix in a large bowl until well combined.
- Grab your tea accessories, tea infusers, and/or tea pots…and brew a cup! (Note: I get all of my loose leaf tea-making supplies online from Mountain Rose Herbs.)
- This herbal tea blend will keep stored in a cool, dark place for approximately 6 months. (Note: I like to store all of my teas in glass jars with tight-fitting lids.)
- Brew and drink daily during the days between winter and spring!
Where Can I Get This Stuff?
–Mountain Rose Herbs…they have everything you’ll need for this remedy! It’s your one-stop-shop!

Very beautiful! I have been digging dandelion lately out of my yard and setting to dry. I have all of the ingredients except for clover, so I think I will sub in some rosehips and brew this up! Love it 🙂

I love that you mention to source the ingredients through wildcrafting 🙂 It is one of my favorite hobbies! I just did a detail on wildcrafting the other day on my blog. http://www.sustaincreateandflow.com/tenets-of-wild-crafting/
I also a lot of info on nettles, which are up right now in my region! Yippee 🙂
