Question:
A question about chamomile, i know it has some sedative and anti-anxiety properties...?
i'd like to take some tea to school with me, however i have a question could i get a bottle of room temp water and have a tea bag sit in there for a little while, or do you have to use hot water to make the tea concentrated?
i guess since at school i cant use a microwave, i could brew some tea the night before put it in the fridge and pour it into a an empty water bottle...
Answers:
Yes, it is very good choice, Chamomile tea will soothe your nerves and rest your mind, also this the safest medicinal herb tea. It has a mild honey-flowery aroma, golden yellow hue, and a delicate semi-sweet smooth taste. Chamomile tea is a naturally caffeine-free tisane (herbal tea) and has a comparable amount of health benefits to its cousin, green tea.
I recommend my likes recipe: Chamomile & Cranberry Tea
This unlikely combination is a great after-dinner quaff, as cranberry juice cleanses the palate while chamomile settles the stomach.
Make a one-cup serving for yourself (with one teacup of chamomile and 1/4 cup cranberry juice) or a full teapot to share with family and friends or take some tea to school (you may use thermos for school). This after-dinner "'drink" will surely become a habit in your house!
Makes 4 servings
-4 chamomile teabags
-4 cups boiling water
-1 cup cranberry juice cocktail, at room temperature
- Sugar to taste
Steep the teabags in the boiling water in a teapot, for 8 minutes. Discard the teabags and add the cranberry juice. Stir and serve immediately in teacups.
Add sugar to taste.
Important: to use only hot water to make the tea. It is Tea - it is not a diluted juice or chemical concoction.
