The mint farmers I grew up with in Oregon swore that pure mint tea would kick out a cold in a day. I've made similar teas with clover and eucalyptus. I just don't get sick anymore. Thank God!
YES!! I’ve missed videos like this. I do love the pantry chats but I love these HANDS ON videos!! Sooo much inspiration from one of my favorite homesteading families! ❤
This looks wonderful. It's best to add raw honey once your cup has cooled to drinking temperature so it does not kill the good bacteria. Definitely gonna make some ☺️🌱🍋🍊
I just tested positive for flu Wednesday. I am over the worst but will make some of this to help with the remainder. Thank you so much this is very timely.
I heard within the past month from one of my homesteader's that I watch(I don't remember which one) that metal breaks down the medicinal qualities of honey. That's why it used to come with a wooden utensil. I just bought a wooden spoon to stir my concoctions that have honey in them.
Thanks for the recipe! I'm not even sick but I just started my cycle so I definitely need the extra support from herbs my body is okay with. I'm going to add red raspberry leaf to this and make enough for the week, starting tonight!
Thanks Caroline gonna make some up. Gonna need another refrigerator just for ferments and all this good for you stuff. Now I know why my dad always had two refrigerators.
Hey Carolyn, watching you make this I wonder if I could take my Fire cider and make a tea with that in this sane way. The ingredients are pretty similar. Blessings to you and your little family from Sherri Becker in Wisconsin!
Love everything you do. I'm grandma living in Texas love gardening and everything homemade. Any suggestions for 2 year old who will not eat fruit and veggies? Tried smoothies but no luck. She also has trouble going poo cuz of diet wondering if you have any ideas
This is great I really love following you and learning from fron you. The only different thing I would do with this tea is not add the lemon/lime or honey before the boiling water. I would squeeze it/add it when the tea is served and the water has cooled down a bit. This is to ensure that the enzymes are not killed off with boiling water. I also just send your link to my daughter in Colorado and my other daughter in Colombia. Because like me, they Love herbal medicine! We don't use conventional medicine unless we absolutely have to and most of the times we find a way to stick to herbals instead. Thank you for all you do, you're wonderful 😊❤
Doesn't heat get rid of the antibacterial properties in honey? I have always been told not to heat it too much because it destroys all the good things in it.
The tea concentrate can be kept in the refrigerator for up to a week. But for the best results, make enough for one day (about 1/2 gallon). You’ll use equal parts tea concentrate and water for serving.
Carolyn, some of the links in your description to the free pdf downloads are coming up as "page doesn't exist" when my name and email is entered. The links for the crumbs use and all the links below that are not functioning and come up as "page doesn't exist". Only the links above the crumbs pdf are working.
My favorite thing to take for the COLD and FLU is 15 drops of food grade 35% Hydrogen peroxide into 16 ounces of steam distilled water taken 2 times each day until sickness symptoms are completely gone. ✅ Make sure to use steam distilled water ! I have tried many types of supplements, vitamins, minerals, cough drops, etc., but the 35% Hydrogen peroxide is the only thing that helped kill the FLU virus and COLD virus. It is important to keep your core body temperature up by eating hot, warm foods such as chicken soups and vegetable soups. Drinking organic hot chocolate and organic hot tea also helps keep up your body core temperature.
You should start out with 1 DROP of HP in 8 oz of water on an empty stomach, wait if you can 2 hours to eat. If you get up in the night you can take it then. If you don't have any problems you can work up to 5 drops. If you aren't familiar with HP 35o/o do not get it on your skin, it burns.
Does the government spray your area regularly? In other words, do chemtrails fill your skies? Wouldn’t the heavy metals they’re spraying fall onto your garden? They spray almost constantly here on the east coast of Florida, even more the past few months than ever. I feel like even the herbs in my raised bed get a powdery feel about them, I wonder if it’s from the chemtrails. So I find myself having to rinse even our own organic crops.

Mint, chamomile, anise, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, thyme and some honey. That’s what I’ve used this year. Mint is a favorite of mine.
I love the smell of the mint fields when we go to the valley. We are on the coast in Oregon
@@kimberleemonroe2255 I bet that was amazing. I’m in southern Illinois. Lots of corn here lol

Daily back to basic foods & herbal routine to get/stay as healthy as possible. Definitely suppliment these extras to kick the bugs out. 😊
I can't wait to start your herbal class.
Good timing here too.
My husband is sick right now. I will be making this for him. Then it will be ready if I happen to get sick, too. Thank you for this timely video.
Mine is too. Did it help your husband? Blessings to you and your family 🙏

Thanks for sharing ❤
Thank you so much. I have been fighting this cold for a few weeks now. The cough is the last lingering part of it.
Great video and can’t wait to watch the others. One question-Does the hot water destroy the anti microbial properties of the honey?
Great video! I love your herbal remedy videos.
The timing of this is perfect for my family
I LOVE these type of vlogs!
Loved this share, thank you ❤🔥
Thank you
thank you Carolyn. Shared!
Thanks Carolyn. Great info and resource links. Appreciate 😊
Great recipe thank you. Val C ❤️🙏🏻
Do you have a recipe for “Tylenol” for children
I think my Grands would like this too. Thank you
Hey sweety! I've done that with cayenne pepper plants!
Thank you for sharing this ❤

Would you mind sharing where you got your tea kettle from?
I use store,Amazon and home grown
Doesn't heat get rid of the antibacterial properties in honey? I have always been told not to heat it too much because it destroys all the good things in it.
Can we refill this same jar and ingredients to use the next day, or should we start with fresh ingredients after this is completely consumed?
if i use dried herbs what are the porportions?
Do your herbs come back every year that's out in garden or do you have to replant?
Our perennial herbs do come back every year.
Did you know that even organic produce has been approved by the FDA to use Appeal coating?
Link will not open tonight. Ill try again tomorrow
Anyone know where I can find Elba potatoes now. I live in Northern Oregon.
I must be overlooking it but trying to find the link to where you like to purchase medicinal herbs?
We like www.farmhouseteas.com, www.mountainroseherbs.com or www.bulkherbstore.com
What is your take of dry canned potatoes
Unfortunately, dry canning is not a safe way of preservation.
@@HomesteadingFamily thank you that was my take on it too
Is this tea shelf stable or does it need to be made new every time?
The tea concentrate can be kept in the refrigerator for up to a week. But for the best results, make enough for one day (about 1/2 gallon). You’ll use equal parts tea concentrate and water for serving.
It’s hard to know where to save and where to spend!
Never introduce honey to boiling water. It changes it at many levels. 180° or lless. Great recipe btw. Beats a Hot toddy...

These seem to all be working on our end. Please email us at joshandcarolyn@homesteadingfamily.com so we can help you access them. Thanks!
Could you use all these ingredients freeze dried? Then add hot water?
Yes
Where is the link to the starting classes?
Here it is: homesteadingfamily.com/HHHyt
Could anyone find the link she mentioned that would be in the description about where she buys her herbs?? I found everything but that.
No link but it's called Farmhouse Teas 🥰
Thank you dear!
Can this be canned?

Do you use the HP in a vaporizer? Drink it? Val C
You should start out with 1 DROP of HP in 8 oz of water on an empty stomach, wait if you can 2 hours to eat. If you get up in the night you can take it then. If you don't have any problems you can work up to 5 drops. If you aren't familiar with HP 35o/o do not get it on your skin, it burns.
Where do you get your HP?
I have a homeopathic lady that I go to and get it from her.

Somebody told me that raw honey loses its benefits if you mix it with a hot drink..... Is that true?
What is your favorite site for buying herbs outside a grocery store?
We like www.mountainroseherbs.com or www.thebulkherbstore.com
I don't get the email for your class
Please email us at joshandcarolyn@homesteadingfamily.com so we can help.
Great recipe.
But please speak to us as adults rather than children.
She means no harm. Just trying to speak things simple & plain enough that everyone understands what she says with no issues so everyone can make this to help families out.
Many times most misunderstandings come from miscommunication.
I did not think she was talking to us like children, good grief everyone has to take offense at everything now and if there is no offense they have to make something up to be offended at.
So rude! There are so many people these days that don’t know to do a thing in the kitchen.
