Nettles

Nettle tea is so soothing for seasonal allergies. When a jar of nettle is opened, the aroma inhaled is reminiscent of kelp. Surprisingly, after the herb is brewed, the tea tastes creamy almost like milk. Lately I've been making blends with nettle and red raspberry leaf, red clover or peppermint. It even goes well with rooibos or chai.
Nettle is also helpful for asthma, bronchitis, hair, PMS, urinary issues, arthritis, anemia and blood pressure (to name a few.)
