“Borage for Courage” was the motto for this beautiful herb. Tea made from the flowers and leaves is a traditional, gentle remedy used to relieve stress or anxiety. Fresh leaves and flowers are used, as most of this delicate herb’s properties are lost in drying.
Borage Tea: Boil 1 cup of water per 1 Tablespoon of herb. Pour water over the herb and let steep for 30 minutes. Strain and sweeten with honey, if desired.
I like the name.
