HERBAL SODAS
Don't let an abundance of herbs go to waste. Pluck several types of sprigs -- we used basil, mint, and thyme -- and we use them to flavor a basic sugar syrup. Mix the concoction with ice and sparkling water, then garnish the drinks with additional sprigs.

- Place your large handful of herbs in one gallon of water. Bring to a boil, and then allow to cool slightly before adding sugar. Stir to dissolve the sugar completely.
- When the liquid has cooled to room temperature, stir the lemon juice, and either your ginger bug starter or the yeast into the “tea.” Mix well.
- Using a funnel for spill-proof pouring, and a strainer to catch plant material, pour the soda into bottles. You can use flip top bottles designed for brewing, like these ones, or you can use food grade plastic soda bottles.
- Set the bottles in a room temperature location for around 48 hours (36 in warmer summer weather) to develop carbonation.(Please read safety note)

- Lemon and elderflower tea for fighting common flu. Elderflowers and lemon might easily become your most favorite herbal tea in the world. While lemon tea is a no stranger to tea drinkers, elderflowers are still not as widely used as they deserve.
- Ginger tea. Fresh, dried, pickled or powdered, ginger tastes well in any form and in any dish or drink – especially in tea. Ginger tea is the only tea we absolutely recommend making with fresh instead of dry ingredients.
- Mint and lavender. Upgrade the simple mint tea by adding a touch of lavender flowers. Lavender may help with relaxation, and help freshen the breath. Together with mint it gives a delicious and potent tea with relaxing, antimicrobial, antiviral and antioxidant properties[3].
- Chamomile and lemon blam. When you combine two tasty herbs with relaxing properties, you get the most delicious sleepy time tea in the world. Lemon balm or melissa is a herb from a mint family with mild minty and lemony flavor.
- Herbal chai tea. Nothing beats a cup of warm chai – in any season. While the real chai is made with strong black tea, herbal chai has no caffeine at all.
- Cinnamon and apple. Cinnamon and apple tea is true classic in the world of herbal fruit teas. You can make them from cinnamon stick and cinnamon powder, and with fresh and dried apple pieces.

- Anti-inflammatory Weight Loss Tea. Because of my skepticism surrounding whether or not herbal teas can be beneficial when it comes to your health, I love that this recipe comes along with a tale of the author’s own experience with the tea.
- Energy Herbal Tea. This recipe for Energy Herbal Tea looks delicious, with both sweet and herbal aspects to it. I always tend to add honey to my herbal tea because I find that it eradicates any aftertaste that might not be as pleasant as the tea itself, with a touch of sweetness.
- Chamomile and Turmeric Evening Tea. Chamomile is a classic calming, soothing ingredient. Whether it’s in a tea like this Chamomile and Turmeric Evening Tea, a room spray or a candle, it never fails to make me feel relaxed and ready for bed.
- Banana Tea. My dad has suffered from insomnia for a while now, which is not a position you want to be in as a man who works five full days a week and has to commute to and from there.
- Herbal Chai Tea. I am not a fan of coffee, so whenever I meet someone at a coffee shop or have a craving for something warm as I am on my way to work on a chilly morning I will always opt for a chai latte.
- Floral Herbal Tea. I cannot get over how beautiful this Floral Herbal Tea is. It almost looks too beautiful to consume, and I am sure that this would make the prettiest gift for any tea lovers you know.
- Apple Fig Herbal Tea. I have tried and enjoyed different apple flavored teas from the store, but never one paired with fig. The fact that the figs are dried will mean that they are deliciously sweet which I like as I prefer my teas to be so.
- Herbal Tea for Allergies. I am not the most clued up person when it comes to all the fancy ingredients in herbal teas, so I was profoundly glad to see that this recipe comes along with a description of exactly what each ingredient within it does, and how it is beneficial to you.
- Licorice Tea. Licorice tea is good for soothing sore throats and reducing the amount of phlegm, not the most pleasant of topics I know, that we produce as a result of that.
- Honey, Lemon and Ginger Tea. This is my all-time favorite tea remedy and probably will be for eternity. I have tried Honey, Lemon and Ginger Tea that you can buy from the store but it is never the same as adding real fresh ginger, a lemon wedge and a dollop of honey to a cup of boiling water.
