BLOOD PURIFYING HERBAL TEA

[Guest guest]

I should probly wait for the right day to post this, but I was so

excited I found this recipe, so here goes!

 

BLOOD PURIFYING HERBAL TEA

 

The following recipe comes from the Vegetarian Times, May 1990

issue,

and looks

fairly reasonable from an herbalists point of view, though I might

add a bit of

nutmeg and cinnamon to it for my own tastes.

 

1 part burdock root

1 part chicory root (may be roasted for a coffee-like taste)

1 part dandelion root

1 part sarsaparilla root

1/2 part yellow dock root

1/2 part licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra) to sweeten [optional]

 

Combine herbs in a jar. To make tea, use 1 teaspoon herbs per 1 cup

of water [1

teaballs worth basically]. Place herbs and water in a saucepan.

bring

to a boil,

cover, reduce heat and let simmer for about 10 minutes. Strain

before

serving.

 

Start by drinking 1 cup of tea daily. You may increase to 2 or 3

cups

if you

wish. For best results continue drinking daily for at least 2 weeks.
