Most people are familiar with tea. They buy it in a box at the store and enjoy it hot and cold. There are many delicious flavors available and are definitely worth tasting. But if you've never made iced tea from a fruity herbal tea blend, then you're missing a wonderful experience. If you have access to fresh herbs, so much more the fun of the tea experience! You're able to brew a fresh cup of mint tea at any time or you can add your fresh herbs to store bought blends for "uniquely you" flavor. Don't be afraid to experiment, the worse that can happen is it tastes awful and get poured down the drain. But the best that can happen is you will enjoy a concoction straight from your own imagination and creativeness that you can share with friends and family.
 
In history we learned about the Boston Tea Party. This was an act of political protest against high taxes. American Colonists were unable to enjoy their favorite beverage because they simply couldn't afford to buy it. Colonists soon learned from the American Natives, how to blend plants from their new World into delicious teas. They used raspberry leaves, chamomile, thyme and red clover. These blends were soon to be called Liberty Tea. Colonists drank them as a defiant stand against taxation. The final act resulted in the December, 1773 Tea Party. Colonists desguised as Indians, threw 342 chests of British tea into the Boston Harbor, thereby telling the Crown, they hated taxation. It was one movement toward our American Independance.
