    You Can Grow Your Own Herbs for Iced Tea

    If you like to garden and grow herbs you can make some delicious and healthy Iced Tea or Hot Tea. There are so many different herbs to grow for tea. Some of my favorites are Mint and there are several varieties, lemongrass, lavender, chamomile, ginger, jasmine, and lemon balm.

    They not only taste delicious but they can have some soothing benefits. Ginger calms your stomach and chamomile relaxes you.

    Nothing better than growing your herbs and citrus to make Homemade Tea.
