As fall surrounds us and winter approaches, it’s time to think ahead and store a little herbal medicine in your pantry.

This tea protects with the naturally antiseptic properties of thyme, ginger and throat soothing sage.  Sage is quite miraculous when it comes to soothing a sore throat and stopping a cough.

I make this every fall and the recipe makes plenty to make it through the long winter.  Sweeten with additionally soothing and antiseptic packed honey!

Immune and throat soothing tea:

1/3 c dried sage leaf

1/3 c powdered ginger

1/3 c dried thyme

Combine in a jar, shake and top with a tight lid.

Makes approx 30 cups.  You’ll need a tea ball or strainer.
