This time of year I am prepping my geraniums to be outside after being indoors for the winter. I trim them, shape them, replace the soil, check for pests and other tasks (you can see some details in this blog post: Care for Scented Geraniums.) With all the cut sprigs I will make Vacuum Fresh, start some cuttings, or brew some up as tea, like this flavorful yet simple tea that you can create with Rose Geranium leaves.
Rose Geranium leaves up close
Rose Geranium Tea
2 orange pekoe tea bags
4 fresh rose geranium leaves
Combine tea bags and geranium leaves in a small to medium tea pot and cover with 2 cups of hot, just off the boil, water and allow to steep for 5 to 10 minutes.
Serve hot or over ice for a refreshing pick me up in your afternoon.
