Tea that is not tea.




        
 I would like to introduce you to a rather unique but calming herbal 'tea' called Tulsi Tea. In India one of their most important/ sacred herbs is called Tulsi, also known as Holy Basil. It is different from the basil that you would find in Pesto and comes in different varieties. It has been said that this tea will help in relieving cold symptoms. With all this H1N1 cold and flu going it wouldn't be a bad idea to pick up 'teas' like this to help boost your immune system. You can find out more by going to their site by clicking on the picture above.

Name: Jasmine
Type: Tulsi, Herbal
Company: Organic India
Purchased: Valley Natural Foods

The Jasmine flavor combined with the Tulsi creates a very soothing and unique taste. The aftertaste (which is almost as important as the main taste) also has a pleasant lingering. If you're into trying out different international flavors give this one a try. If any of you have tried it let me know what you think.

Their Honey Chamomile flavor is also very good.
