This is one of the many recipes I came up with on my own while experimenting with my various tea herbs. I rather like this particular blend since I've discovered that fennel and mint go together quite well. I added some lemon verbena, too, to help round out the flavors. I strongly recommend you try this particular tea iced! Note: I've listed things in teaspoons because this website won't let me list it in parts, but it's technically in a ratio, so you can make whatever quantity you want.
