Mint is a perennial and certainly comes to mind when you think about herbal tea. Any tea garden must have mint. Particularly peppermint is great to drink after a substantial meal as it soothes the stomach. And there are a huge variety of mint kinds available.
Talking of lavender, I urge you to try it in tea if you haven't already. Many believe that lavender should only be used in soap or scent, not in beverages. It has a beautiful sweet flavour without being excessively floral when prepared as a tisane, though. Once more, a lot of other herbs go nicely with this perennial.
Another traditional perennial, this one is frequently eaten on its own. After a stressful day, chamomile is a great remedy for soothing upset stomachs and reducing tension. The flower is well-liked by my kids and has a little apple flavour and pleasant apple aroma.
This flower, which is also perennial and belongs to the mint family, has petals with a strong mint and citrus flavour. Because a little bit goes a long way, use it carefully in your tea blends. The petals blend in beautifully with the other flowers and plants. This plant attracts bees like crazy, as the name would suggest.
If left unmanaged, lemon balm is indeed a perennial herb that may quickly take over your garden. Harvest it frequently, and if it begins to creep, hard pinch it back. With its vibrant citrus flavour and smell, it is a lovely complement to every herbal tea combination. Moreover, the leaves produce a tasty summer mead.
The big leaves of lemon verbena, a herb with a lemon flavour and aroma, make a delicious cup of tea. In warmer regions, zones 9 and 10, verbena is a perennial, while in cooler, northern climes with shorter growing seasons, it is an annual. To aid in digestion, lemon verbena teas is frequently consumed.
Every tea garden would benefit from the addition of roses. While in bloom, they have a lovely appearance and aroma. Its petals and even its unopened buds, which are a perennial and come back every year, are a wonderful addition to just about any green tea blend.
Indeed, basil, an annual with a beautiful fragrance, produces a calming cup of tea. It tastes very excellent when combined with the juice of one lemon or a lemon verbena / lemon balm herbal tea blend. Like many other tisanes, basil is great to drink after a substantial meal.
You probably already have this perennial herb blooming in your herb garden, and it makes a delicious cup of tea. Thyme has a somewhat pleasant flavour and several medical uses, including the soothing of coughs and the reduction of stress. This tastes excellent both by itself and when combined with a citrus herb,
Another widely used culinary herb also yields a tasty tea. Perennial rosemary, when used to make tea, has a faint citrus and pine flavour. It's an energising tea, & I find which even breathing in the aroma while I drink makes me more focused. This is a great coffee substitute for the morning.
