So, let's talk about teas. Ask any witch and I guarantee she'll tell you that there's a tea for everything. This article is less about discussion and more about recipes. I think because I'm providing the recipes that I have to mention my lack of responsibility if something bad were to happen. Everyone, please know your allergies and use your best judgement when using something you're unfamiliar with. I don't condone improper use of herbs and such and definitely don't condone harming others. To my best knowledge, I won't have anything listed that could cause harm to someone. All that being said, let's get to it.
You can take your herbal mixtures are store them in airtight containers until they're ready to be made into teas. Add one heaping tablespoon to a mug of boiling (be careful!) water. Let it steep for 5-10 minutes depending on how you prefer you tea strength. Strain (or don't, if you read it) and enjoy!
