Looks Like a Potpourri but It is a Tea Blend called Kittatinny Tea |
Kittatinny is a mountain in the Alleghenies of Pennsylvania. So it is a perfect blend for me to be doing. I was running out of my self-sealing teabags. So I put two teaspoons into these. So I may get two steepings rather than just one.
Kittatinny Tea
(Makes approximately 23 teabags with 2 teaspoons each)
Steep for 5 minutes
2 cups lemon verbena leaves, crushed
1/2 cup chamomile flowers
1/4 cup rosemary blades
1/2 cup fragrant rose petals
Mix all together. Bake for 30 minutes at 150 degrees. Store in a dark dry place.
I did not bake the mixture. I guess baking would enhance the flavor of the mix or kill off any hangers on! The description says it is a good afternoon tea and is nice with scones, jam, fruit or light cake!
We are still very cold, but a break from the cold is going to happen next week, but not before we get a bit of snow tomorrow into Friday! Will it ever end! Well, since I was early celebrating Valentine's Day, we are going to go out for our Valentine's dinner tonight! We have really been staying at home and not going anywhere. So a night to celebrate is in order! Going to T.G.I. Fridays and getting a free dessert! Can't beat that! Talk to you later!
