Sage Tea

To the ancients, including the Arabians, Sage (Salvia 
officinalis) was associated with longevity and was highly 
prized. The genus name ferives from the Latin for "salvation". 
In early Dutch trading days, the Chinese preferred Sage tea to 
their own native tea, and gave traders up to four times the 
quantity of their choicest tea in exchange. The American Indians 
used it both topically and internally for its health benefits. 
Sage is oftenused today as a spice for flavoring vegetables, 
chicken, meats, fish, and eggs. Sage is a heartening brew, if 
not made too strong. It can be sweetened with maple syrup, brown 
sugar or honey, or fkavored with a squeeze of orange, lemon or a 
dash of cinnamon.
