**New Year’s Tea Blend** This makes about 1 cup of loose herbal tea, enough for 12–15 cups of brewed tea. **Ingredients:** 4 tablespoons green tea (sencha or gunpowder works nicely) 2 tablespoons dried peppermint or spearmint 2 tablespoons lemon balm 1 tablespoon rose hips, crushed 1 teaspoon dried lavender (a little goes a long way) ½–1 teaspoon cinnamon chips or dried ginger pieces (adjust for how warm you want it) **Directions:** Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and stir gently to blend. Store in a glass jar away from light and heat. The blend will stay fresh for several months. To Brew: Use 1 teaspoon of the tea per 8 oz hot water. Steep 3–5 minutes, covered. If you want a sweeter, rounder cup, add a touch of honey or a slice of lemon. If you love mint, add a little more. If you’re lavender-shy, use just a pinch. Herbal tea blending is meant to feel intuitive, and you can absolutely adjust this to suit your own taste.
