Cookbook Heaven at Recipelink.com

We modern folks need a lot of extra energy just to get through our busy days. Taking time out for tea will help restore flagging energy levels, especially if the tea is this one. You can grate the fresh ginger root or just put young buds through a garlic press (you don't even need to peel them).

1 teaspoon fresh or 1/2 teaspoon dried ginger root
1 teaspoon fresh or 1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
1 teaspoon fresh or 1/2 teaspoon dried sweet woodruff
1 teaspoon fresh or 1/2 teaspoon dried goldenrod
1 teaspoon fresh or 1/2 teaspoon dried basil

Cover the ingredients with 5 cups of simmering water. Let steep for 3 to 5 minutes. Serve warm.
