Alfalfa Peppermint Tea

History

    Used by the early Arabs as feed for their horses 
to make the animal swift and strong, Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) 
is one of natures oldest legumes. Because the roots of the plant 
burrow deep into the earth, Alfalfa naturally contains a variety 
of vitamins, minerals and enzymes known to promote good health. 
Peppermint (Mentha piperita) is a widely-used flavoring found in 
a variety of consumer products. Peppermint's aromatic and 
health-giving qualities come from the mint;s volatie oil, which 
contains menthol. Both herbs have a long and varied history and 
together make a refreshing tea. It may be served either hot or 
cold, and lemon may be added, along with sweetners , to taste.
