This handy little tea-maker's companion is a wonderful recipe book and herbal guide for the herbal tea enthusiast. If you have an interest in herbal teas and have wanted to start blending your own, but weren't sure where to start, this book may well be the place. Jeanine Pollak puts together 101 tea brews for any occasion with catchy names to boot, like "A Pimple's Worst Nightmare Tea" and "Spaz-Away Tea". The general information in the beginning of the book about harvesting, drying and brewing is very skeletal, but it provides enough info to get you started. The tea recipes are great, the interspersed bios of a broad spectrum of inspiring herbal women are heartening and fun to read and the easy-to-use guide to 72 different herbs and their properties in the back is an extremely useful reference. An attractive book to boot, filled with interesting tea factoids throughout the margins, this book will find a happy home on your coffee table, on your bookshelf or right in your kitchen. 7.5"x7.5", soft cover, 153 pages with a handy index, suggested reading and resources section.
