Colonists looked to their gardens not just for food but for medicine. Our Colonial Headache Remedy Tea is a recreation of an herbal remedy tea originally made in the 1500s using flowers and herbs. The fragrant floral notes of the rose and lavender are grounded by the earthy and woody flavors of sage and marjoram. Enjoy your Colonial Headache Remedy with a tea biscuit or a small sweet.
Add one teaspoon of tea to a cup of boiling water. Let sit as long as you desire.
