Sage is a perennial mint native to the northern shore of the Mediterranean. Much more than a culinary delight, Sage was an active part of the medicine cabinet of the ancient Romans. Manuscripts of monks from the 10th and 11th centuries document Sage as an honoured herb among apothecaries. In Medieval Europe, Sage was a favourite hot beverage and was often added to ale.

Today, Sage is popular as an aromatic tea as well as a culinary herb.

The use of Senna as an herb apparently predates written records. It is native to Arabia and Somolia, but now grows in most tropical parts of the world where there is rich soil.

This Senna, also called Alexandria Senna, reaches up to 3 feet in height and has pale green stems with brittle, olive green leaflets, which are usually consumed as a tea. Senna is frequently combined with aromatic herbs such as Cinnamon, Ginger, Anise and Fennel. Try adding fruit to make a tasty treat.

Sheep sorrel grows on acidic soil in southern Canada and northern U.S.A. It is distinguished from garden sorrel, its cousin, by a very lemony and slightly sour taste. The young leaves of sheep sorrel are used in place of garden greens and can also be used in soups and stews. Sheep sorrel always makes a refreshing drink in a glass of ice cold water or a cup of relaxing tea.

Sheep sorrel has been made famous by Rene Caisse. Her herbal formula originated from the Algonquin Ojibwe Indians. This herb is used in combination with burdock  root, rubarb root and slippery elm bark to form the recipe for "C Blend." Try this distinguished formula!

The Slippery Elm is native to North America and is derived from the inner bark of the Red Elm tree.

The inner bark was very popular among both Native Americans and European settlers. They used it to improve the flavour of game; to prevent lard or butter from turning rancid, as a flour extender, and as a jelly thickener. Today it is also used a main ingredient in throat lozenges.

In tea form it makes a very mild drink and has a peculiar sweetish aroma with a bland taste.
