As an additional service to our customers and friends I would like to offer a bit of herbal knowledge.     

Here is a recipe I very much enjoy as a daytime drink that is delicious and full of medicinial benefits.  This tasty, simple recipe is from a Canadian herbalist and is great for children and adults alike.
