I never have used it. Now, I have to investigate, and try it. Do you use it, Nuts?

When my iguana was alive I would buy hibiscus plants so he could eat the flowers. He also like dandelions and impatiens. I ordered dandelion seeds from Canada to plant in my backyard ( none of the U.S. seed companies sold dandelion seeds because its considered just a weed in this country).

Nutsberry: I ordered the dandelion seed over 15 years ago, I was still living in New Mexico and I googled dandelion seeds and a nursery in Canada came up but I don't remember the name and I don't know if they would still send seeds to the U.S.
My Aunt made dandelion wine and made my Dad (her brother) try it and it almost knocked him out, he wasn't a drinker, just a cocktail once in a while, he said it was like drinking hooch.

Why thank you kindly. It was very satisfying as a tea. We also had it with breakfast.

this looks tasty!  Egyptian Tea Recipe INGREDIENTS 1 cup hibiscus flowers 4 cups hot water 1/2 cup sugar, or more to taste 4 teaspoons honey 2 teaspoons orange flower water PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS Steep the hibiscus in the water in a pitcher for 40 minutes but no longer than 1 hour. You can drain the tea through a fine mesh sieve or place the hibiscus in cheesecloth and then strain out the excess liquid. Once you have strained the tea you can now start adding the orange flower water, sugar and honey. Place in the fridge to cool, however you can enjoy warm. Yield: 4 Cups |
