Tea of Cheer and Joy
I found this recipe on the Garden Guides website. Interesting to note that three of the five ingredients of this tea grow here in the Kootenays.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup dried chamomile flowers
1/2 cup dried calendula petals
2 tablespoons grated lemon peel
1/4 cup dried peppermint
1 tablespoon whole cloves
Combine all ingredients and store in an airtight container. To brew use 1 1/2 tsp. of tea with 1 cup (8 ounces) boiling water. Steep for 3-5 minutes. Strain and sweeten to taste.
Who can’t use a little cheer and joy these days?
