There is virtually nothing to brewing a perfect cup of tea. Add 2-3 tablespoons (or adjust according to personal preference) of fresh herbs to one cup of boiling water and steep for 2-5 minutes. Include stevia for sweetness and add dried or fresh lemon or orange zest or a pinch of fresh grated gingerroot for additional flavor. Then, with fresh cup in hand, sit back on your tea garden bench, while you relax among the flowers and scents to soothe away the cares of the day.
