Soothing Throat Tea – Herbal Tea Blend
Literally translated: Frog in throat (much better)

“Traditionally, we cut cherry branches on this day, put them into water and then into a vase. If they flower on December 24, it means good fortune. Tip: put brnaches briefly in the freezer, because only frozen blossoms bloom.”

We have similar custom here; but it does not bring fortune – but a wedding in family. I bet back then it could be quite funny.

Anyway, the tea – as I have sore throat is perfect. And it is very tasty too! Lime flowers (not fruits) are soothing, ribwort is making mucus and coating the throat. Rose hips make the taste with mallow. Yeah, of course it tastes herbal, but it is pretty nice.
