General Information:

Sheep sorrel tea has many potential health benefits, including: Sheep sorrel is rich in vitamins A and C, which are important for immune function and skin health. Sheep sorrel's high fiber content can help with digestion and prevent constipation. It can also help with gastrointestinal issues like indigestion, gastritis, and irritable bowel syndrome. Sheep sorrel has anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce pain and inflammation. Sheep sorrel can also be used to treat fevers, scurvy, diarrhea, and excessive menstrual bleeding. However, it can be poisonous in large doses due to its high levels of oxalic acid and tannin. People with calcium-based kidney stones should also be careful about consuming sheep sorrel, as the oxalic acid can interfere with calcium absorption. Sheep sorrel may also slow blood clotting, so taking it with other blood-thinning medications could increase the risk of bleeding and bruising

How to use:

The basic method for dried herbs and flower is, take 2-3 tablespoons of dried herb in a cup or teapot.  Pour hot water over it and cover it with lid for 10-30 minutes.  Hot water is needed to draw out the antioxidants, enzymes, vitamins, flavonoids, and volatile oils from the botanicals.  Strain and squeeze out as much as liquid as possible and enjoy!

You can sweeten your herbal tea with a bit of honey, natural fruit juice, stevia leaves powder and or licorice root powder.

You can make ice cubes or pops by freezing tea in ice trays or pop molds.

Precautions: You should consult with a qualified healthcare practitioner before using any herbal products, particularly if you are pregnant, nursing, or on any medications.
