Off came the sage leaves, while I boiled the kettle.... For once, and now every day, I drink sage tea. My throat is better, my herbs look great being pinched and with a spoonful of honey I have sage tea at 5.00am when my day starts. Wonderful, thank you.<br />I still have a few coffees during the day though! agnes.verkroost@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11209224764906669615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6861562129126489326.post-11299078005333285692014-08-06T09:27:53.516-04:002014-08-06T09:27:53.516-04:00Oh, yes.

Will try the tea. Commenters suggestion to use mint and lavender with sage sounds really good! Have you tried any teas with fresh/dried rosemary as well?

She made sage tea for me once when I had a really bad cold. She sweetened it with sugar.
