Southern Herbal

There aren't many women from the south that don't enjoy a good cup of sweet tea.  I personally love sweet tea, but I'm not so crazy about all of the processing, and toxins that come with the regular black tea we enjoy so much.  Not to mention caffeine will wreck your nervous system.  My friend Debra introduced me to this herbal mix that is refreshing and healthy, and resembles the taste of the old southern favorite.  Celestial Tea brand is great, and it's sold in most grocery stores.  Slice a lemon and take this to the porch for some good southern sittin' and sippin' ;)
