Linden flowers
As early as the Middle Ages, it was treasured for its advantageous properties, and even today linden flower is one of the most popular medicinal agents in the world. It has an aromatic smell, tastes slightly sweet and contains many important flavonoids and essential oils.

Chamomile
At the end of the 16th century, the famous doctor and botanist, Hieronymus Bock identified chamomile with its pleasant scent as the ‘most commonly-used herb in medicine’. Due to its numerous positive properties, in 1987 it received the very first Medicinal Plant of the Year award, and was voted Medicinal Plant of the Year in 2002.

Rose hip
Rose hip, which belongs to the rose family, contains five times more vitamin C than lemons. Its aromatic fruits have a slightly bitter, yet sweet taste and contain the vitamins A, B, E, P and K as well as citric acids, minerals and iron.

Fennel
Fennel is considered one of the oldest medicinal plants. It belongs to the umbellifereae family and has been popular worldwide for many thousands of years due to its intense aroma. Fennel has a sweet yet spicy taste, somewhat reminiscent of aniseed.

Cardamom
Cardamom has been one of the most popular spices in the Asian and Arabian regions for thousands of years. Its delicate, sweet yet sharp aroma means that it is perfect for use in numerous dishes – from spicy curries to aromatic Christmas baked goods. Thanks to its essential oils and other important nutrients, cardamom is one of the oldest healing plants in the world.

Barley malt
Barley belongs to the sweetgrass family and is native to the Middle East and eastern part of the Balkans. As well as magnesium, calcium and potassium, the aromatic, spicy malt made from germinated barley contains many essential amino acids that the body cannot produce by itself.

Hibiscus
Hibiscus, also known as mallow, was already being used in Greece thousands of years ago as a medicinal plant – thus earning its Greek name Althaea, which translates as ‘I cure’. This perennial plant flowers from June to August and produces sweet, box-like fruits.

Liquorice
Liquorice has been used since ancient times for its medicinal properties and is one of the 50 basic herbs used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). It is around 50 times sweeter than sugar and tastes mild, sweet, bitter and aromatic. Liquorice was selected as the Medicinal Plant of the Year in 2012 due to its valuable nutrients.

Alfalfa
From the Arabic translation, meaning “father of all foods”, Alfalfa has been cherished for thousands of years due to its nutritious properties. In addition to proteins, minerals and micronutrients, the seeds of this plant that we know as ‘Lucerne’ contain multiple vitamins, such as E, K, B6 and D. Alfalfa has a subtle, nutty flavour and a spicy, aromatic quality.

Raspberry leaves
Most people are familiar with raspberries as a sweet fruit used in desserts. However, the plant was used in ancient times for its medicinal properties. Raspberry leaves contain extremely high levels of vitamin C and provide nutritious tannins.

Orange peel
It is widely known that oranges contain lots of useful substances. But not many people realise that the peel of the orange is even more valuable than the flesh of the fruit: more than 170 active phytochemicals, over 60 different flavonoids and numerous essential oils make it a valuable source of nutrients. And its refreshing, sweet aroma makes it a very delicious one as well.

Cinnamon
Cinnamon is one of the most expensive herbs in the world and is thought to have been used in China around 3,000 B.C. as a herb and medicinal plant. Cinnamon is extracted from the bark of the cinnamon tree. It tastes aromatic and sweet, and contains nutritious tannins as well as valuable essential oils.

Ginger
Ginger has been used in the Far East for more than 3,000 years as a condiment and medicinal plant. It has a fruity-tart taste and contains essential oils and important minerals as well as various vitamins.

Cloves
Cloves are the flower buds of the clove tree and are mainly used in our part of the world as a spice in foods such as Lebkuchen (gingerbread) or red cabbage. They belong to the Myrtaceae family and have an intense, spicy aroma, which led to them even being weighed up with gold in ancient China and Egypt.

Black pepper
Black pepper, known as the ‘King of Spices’ nowadays is one of the most important spices in the world, together with salt. It originates from the Malabar coast of India and it has an intensive spicy flavour, ranging from mildly spicy to spicy. Ancient traditional medicine of Ayurveda recommends black pepper not only for its spiciness, but also for its valuable properties as a medicinal plant.

Pour 250 ml of freshly boiled water over the teabag. Allow to infuse for 6 to 7 minutes - or longer for a stronger flavour.
