Wonderful Herbal Tea Recipes: Thorough Descriptions & Instructions ♡
This is an excellent book written with much thought, intelligence and warmth. It’s even better than I’d hoped for, and it contains fantastic original herbal tea recipes.From start to finish, a lot of ground is covered. The author Sarah Farr, teaches you how to start your own herb garden, indoors or out. She explains the power of plants, the tea making process, blending different herbs, the difference between fair trade and direct trade, creating a good workspace, storing teas and herbs, how to make cold & hot infusions & decoctions, and training your taste buds.That’s just the very beginning of the book too. There is so much more, and everything is described clearly, with empathy, and in depth. It’s obvious that this woman knows her stuff and has had plenty of real life experience.She speaks honestly of her mistakes and is gentle in her encouragement. It’s as if she’s right there talking to you and guiding you in all the right ways.Then there are tons of amazing, well thought out recipes. They’re all explained in vivid detail, and although some are for simple enjoyment, most of them have themes for the seasons, holidays, and also for strengthening our immune system, and helping us maintain good health and wellness.In each recipe, she explains why each herb is there, and what it’s good for. She explains the taste, the herbal actions, and the different body systems that are affected by the recipe.However, I wish she had at least a quick reference section where she goes over a bunch of herbs that she believes are beneficial to our health, and the ones she likes the best. I like to be able to see and read about each herb and tea seperately.In the end, like I said, she explains how to begin an herb garden. She explains harvesting herbs, drying them, garbling, and storing them. She talks about seeds and seed saving, and how she connects with a garden and the wilderness around her. The language she uses and the way she describes everything is beautiful and her very real connection to nature is almost palpable.Healing Herbal Teas is thorough in its descriptions and directions, and is carefully researched and written. There is just this instant feeling you get from reading these words. The author is not just a good herbalist or just a good writer. She seems to truly have a good heart, lots of empathy and compassion, and an intricate understanding of how human bodies and minds work, as well as how herbs, plants and teas do.I’m very impressed by this book, and I’m absolutely inspired to get more into herbalism.I’ve been making natural wellness, health and body-care products and remedies, and I’ve come to a particular point now. I want to get more involved in the whole process. I believe starting a small indoor garden will keep it fairly simple, but it would give me a sense of accomplishment to be able to grow and nourish my own plants & herbs to use in my natural products and tea blends.This is all still a new world for me but it’s fascinating and it’s so good for the soul. There is really nothing negative about learning about herbs, plants and essential oils, and all the incredible remedies nature provides us with.Although modern medicine may be misguided in many ways, there are plenty of people who understand the amazing power of plants, and the importance of sticking to natural foods, drinks and skincare products.I hope future generations become more aware and more interested in preserving nature and living a more natural life of wellness.”Healing Herbal Teas” is an exceptional book that really inspires and captivates the reader. The photos are gorgeous, and the explanations are lively and easy to grasp.If you have health issues like auto-immune disorders, chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, high cholesterol, depression, etc., this is a great book to have. The author is very much in tune to her own mind and body, and she seems very familiar with health struggles. She can help you heal yourself in a safe and natural way.This book is much more valuable than a bunch of modern doctor’s appointments and toxic drugs. Well worth the money!

Sarah Farr is the undisputed Tea Queen!
This book is absolutely wonderful! I have been an herbalist for over a decade. My family and I grow many tea plants, herbs, and medicinal plants. There are many plants that are healthy to consume in tea, but they just don’t taste good! That is where this book comes in! The author has created a truely beautiful book of tea blends. I have tried more than a handful of her tea blend recipes and they’ve all been lovely!This book came in very handy when making a lactation tea for a friend who is having trouble with her milk supply, and feeding formula to her baby was causing colic, so it was essential she increase her milk supply(and naturally, without prescription drugs). Fenugreek, nettle, and holy thistle are three herbs that I’ve known to help aid in lactation and I personally had success with, but they just don’t taste that good together on their own (trust me I know!). That’s where this book came into play! I was able to easily access the recipe through the index (Nursing Mama tea), and was very pleased to see I had all the supporting flavorful herbs on hand! Well let me tell you, not only was the tea tasty, it was absolutely downright delicious! There were a few herbs that I didn’t even think to use to cover the not so yummy tasting ones!I am so above and beyond thrilled with this book, and that’s saying a lot from the woman who has an extensive herbal reference book library! I am working my way through this book and I’ve had no disappointment at all. Each and every tea I’ve tried is blended in such a way that the herbs synergistically taste amazing together. I’m also ecstatic that I can search for teas by ailment as well. My brother is a tea lover, and I created a few blends for him. He was floored by how tasty they were and said they were my best blends yet! The proportions given in each recipe is what I’ve found most helpful. I am a very creative person and this book has been a great inspiration through my tea blending journey! I’m very happy to have chosen this book from the many tea blending books offered on Amazon……I won’t be needing another…..as this is the tea blending book of all tea blending books! It’s not just a bunch of filler recipes thrown together with a few good ones, it’s a book full of artfully, carefully thought out and created teas. Each and every tea recipe is amazing!Ps. There is also a great section on herb gardening, how to save your plants seeds, how to dry your herbs, etc, that I would have found very helpful when I started my first herb garden over a decade ago!

The best!
This book is absolutely delightful! I have several books on blending herbal teas and this is by far the best. The blends are delicious and use a combination of herbs that complement each other with taste and function. I wish Sarah Farr would write more books! I would buy every one. Thank you for making tea blending so fun!
