The blade mechanism of an old-school blender fits on regular mouth canning jars! Great for no-mess smoothies and blending herbs in tinctures.

New Tea: Lemon Sunset
Perfect for watching the shadows lengthen after a summer day – great hot or cold! With the first of this year’s Chelsea-grown lemon balm plus hibiscus, ginger, and marshmallow leaf. Available from my store, at Agricole Farm Stop in Chelsea, or brewed up fresh at Cattleman’s Coffee and Provisions in Grass Lake!
Caretaker Herbal Electrolyte
Beauty is healing, too!
Herbal Electrolytes
Hot? Thirsty? I’ve got two no-sugar herbal electrolyte formulas:
- Power Plant – Heavy on the minerals. Lightly flavored – very slightly fruity, but mostly “tastes like tea.”
- The Caretaker – Minerals, plus adaptogens and other good stuff to refill the tank. Hibiscus and ginger flavor.
You make both as a long-steeped infusion. I like to brew in the evening and let steep until morning, then keep in the fridge for sipping all day.
