Easy Herbal Tea Blends to Make at Home

Blending your own tea is a fun way to use garden herbs. Start with one main ingredient, then add smaller amounts for flavour.

Blends to try

  • Garden Fresh: 2 parts mint, 1 part lemon balm
  • Evening Cup: 2 parts chamomile, 1 part lemon balm, a little lavender
  • Berry Bright: 2 parts rose hips, 1 part hibiscus, a little orange peel
  • Warm Spice: 2 parts dried ginger, 1 part cinnamon, a little cardamom

How to mix

Measure by volume, and mix in a clean bowl. Store in a sealed jar away from light, and write the date on the label.

A gift idea

Small jars of homemade tea make lovely gifts. Add a tag with the ingredients and brewing steps, and mention any allergens.
