Tea, glorious tea!

Tea is probably the most ancient drink on the planet, and (aside from water), is undoubtedly the most widely consumed beverage in the world! There are literally 100’s of varieties of teas available. Infact, just about every edible herb, plant or flower could be used to make a “tea”. The production of green tea, for example, has become big business, and seems to be leading the growing interest in teas as “functional” drinks. Organic teas, “flavoured” teas, fruit teas, herbal teas, spicy teas and Chai are all generating a great deal of curiosity. Such is the fascination with teas that more and more are receiving attention from the scientific community (as opposed to relying on “tea folklore”), and science is revealing (or confirming!) some quite amazing benefits to human health. 

Herb teas are becoming the preferred choice for many health conscious individuals, instead of the traditional black teas or coffee. Herbs or spices used in quality teas carry (quite naturally) properties that help or aid digestion, and deliver a wide range of health benefits. Herb teas also tend to be hydrating, as opposed to de-hydrating.

Some of the best “teas” are those you can make yourself! Hot water with lemon and grated root ginger is an excellent digestive aid and “warming” beverage. So too is homemade fennel tea, using a ½ tsp of fennel seeds, and boiling water. A very refreshing tea is fresh mint tea, using fresh mint leaves and hot water. A favourite of mine is rose tea, using wild rose petals. Rose petals are very cooling and sweet, and are thought to lift the spirit! We all know that roses are the symbol of love, and infact in herbal medicine; they are used to treat the heart!
