NETTLE TEA RECIPE: INTRO

Nettle tea is taking the world by storm as people are discovering the tea’s health benefits and pleasant flavor profile.  Nettle tea is made with the leaves of the “stinging” nettle plant.  The nettle plant earned this nickname due to the jagged leaves that are used to make the tea.  When these leaves come into contact with humans or animals, they inject compounds that cause a stinging sensation.  This is important to remember if you are planning on trying to collect nettle leaves from the wild; heavy gloves are necessary to avoid getting “stung.”  Once the leaves are dried or boiled, they lose the ability to sting.  It is perfectly healthy to consume the nettle leaves in the form of nettle tea.  I hope you enjoy a Nettle Tea Recipe included below.
