Home Remedy Herbal Drinks


Anise Star drink and Cinnamon, Rosemary, Tumeric drink.

Anise Star Tea Essence
10 Anise Stars
4 Cups of water

Boil for 5 min and let sit overnight in a covered pot to cool.  Pour in glass container with the anise.  

It is used medicinally as a tea and the essence is used in making sweet breads and desserts 

Tumeric Rosemary Cinnamon Tea
A friend suggested this combination to help with my battle with edema.  Seems to really help.  But the best part, it tastes really good and is enjoyable to sip on just because.

3 Tumeric rhizomes
3 Cinnamon sticks
3 Rosemary branches
8 C water

Bring to a boil for 5 min.  Cover and let it sit, steep, and cool overnight on the stovetop.  Pour tea and ingredients in jars and refrigerator.  It is concentrated, so I usually dilute a glass and either drink cold or heat and enjoy hot.

Variation: We had an upper respiratory illness and body aches. So I added ginger root and lavender sprigs to this recipe.  Helped to ease the symptoms while we worked through the sickness.
