Chaste tree berries are also known as vitex or "monk's pepper." Vitex "trees" grow from 3 to 18 feet high and produce dark purple aromatic berries about the size of peppercorns that smell and taste like fresh ground pepper. The ancient Greeks thought vitex encouraged chastity and leaves of the plant were strew on couches associated with Demeter, the goddess of agriculture. As this legend was passed on, monks would carry the leaves in their pockets to assist in their vows of celibacy.

DIRECTIONS

- Good water is an essential part of brewing a great cup of tea. Using spring water or filtered water is recommended.
- Be sure to relax! Some of the most enjoyable aspects of tea are the calmness and ritual that surround it.
- This is a delicate herb and is more potent when exposed to high temperatures for a short period of time. So that your tea has its maximum medicinal properties and flavour, be sure that your water is at a rolling boil when you pour it over your teabags.
- If you desire a medicinal tea: be sure to use one tea bag per cup of boiling water, cover and steep for 7-12 minutes. This is known as the infusion method.
- If you desire a pleasure tea or quick brew: use one teabag per cup of hot water. Pour water over teabags, cover, let steep 3 to 5 minutes to taste.

Free Of Flavorings, preservatives or sweeteners.
