Bee Pollen Herbal Tea

Lots of people add honey to their tea, but this is interesting. Has anyone tried it?

The part about bacteria is throwing me off. Is that supposed to be good? It sounds bad lol

Interesting! I don’t know much about bee pollen, but you can get it in a pill form at health stores and some people who work out a lot and eat healthy will take this as a supplement…I think Tosca Reno (The Eat Clean Diet) mentions bee pollen in her book? I could be getting it mixed up with another work out book/person though.

Yes you can! That’s what caught my eye. I take it so I’m thinking if I can add it to a tea and it would give it a pleasant flavor (does it taste like honey) then that’s one less pill (and I take a lot) that I have to take every day.

I have no idea what it tastes like, but I have been wanting to get the supplement in pill form for a while now.

I have passed by bee pollen MANY times in the Organics section of my store, and pondered about if that was something I could add to tea. I wasn’t sure if it was supposed to be sweet or not (I remember looking it up, and as a supplement, not a sweetener—I was thrown off because they had it right beside the honey and other organic sweeteners—it’s meant to be nutty tasting?). I actually considered it as an interesting possibility in a tea blend. Maybe with chamomile or something.

I kind of want to try some. Looks crunchy.
