For centuries and centuries, people have been creating healthy and delicious herbal tea recipes from edible plants.

Of course, today the best known "tea herb" is the tea plant itself, Camellia sinensis, but there are many other herbs that make wonderful drinks. Technically, teas made from other herbs are called tisanes or infusions, since they don't contain real tea leaves.

However, because the method of preparation is the same as for making tea, many people call them "herbal teas."

Herbal teas have many different uses. They can provide emotional comfort, physical well-being, or simply a delicious and refreshing drink.

Herbal teas are made the same way that regular tea is - the leaves, roots, or sometimes flowers of a plant are steeped in hot water to extract the plant's flavor. There is an incredible variety of herbs that can be used for tea, including some that you would not expect.

For example, almost everyone is familiar with peppermint tea and chamomile tea, but have you ever had tea made from lavender flowers? How about rose petals, or sage?

The recipes that follow will help introduce you to the exciting world of herbal tea!

A Green Tea Smoothie is a great way to boost your energy level and get healthy ingredients without eating an entire meal.

I often make Green Tea Smoothies for my son after school and before sporting events. It satisfies his hunger and gives him the energy and nutrients his body needs for the game.

It is so much better for him than consuming fast food, junk food, or those horrible energy drinks before playing sports.

By combining a variety of healthy ingredients with those that taste good, I can ensure the smoothie is rich in vital nutrients. This is a wonderful way to get your picky eaters to eat healthy without even knowing it!

You too can infuse your favorite smoothie with power-packed green tea as well as other healthy alternatives.

Powdered green tea may be easily added to smoothies, but the best way to incorporate this important, antioxidant-rich ingredient is to brew a nice strong cup of quality green tea and then let it cool before adding it to your smoothie.

I have included a couple of my family’s favorite smoothie recipes. Please feel free to substitute your own preferred ingredients and to experiment with the quantities of each ingredient to satisfy your personal tastes.
