    Kathy Burke Mihalczo’s philosophy when it comes to choosing herbs to blend with tea is “the sky is the limit.”

    At a recent culinary class, Burke Mihalczo, owner of Erin’s Meadow Herb Farm, Clinton, showcased recipes for orange mint cooler, sage punch, honeydew mint basil cooler, cinnamon basil tea and rosemary lemonade.

    I love fresh tea.  Adding fresh herbs from my hyrdoponic herb garden is an excellent idea!

    Below is a recipe from the article.

    Cinnamon basil flavored tea

    1 1/2 quarts water

    Handful of cinnamon basil leaves, washed

    2 family-size tea bags, decaffeinated preferred

    1 (12-ounce) can concentrated apple juice, optional

    Place water in pan. Bruise cinnamon basil leaves with wooden spoon. Add to water, along with 2 tea bags. Bring to boil and remove from heat. Cover and let steep 5 minutes. Serve warm or cold.

    Note: To make a juice cooler, add can of frozen apple juice.
