Rosehips are the fruit of the wild rose plant. They are an excellent source of vitamin C and other antioxidants.
Rosehips have a tart, sour flavor that is somewhat similar to cranberries. Some people compare the flavor to a combination of apples and plums. The flavor of rosehips can vary depending on the variety, but they are generally sour, astringent, and slightly sweet.
You can make a delicious tea by combining rosehips and other herbs. To make the tea, steep 1 to 2 teaspoons of dried rosehips in 1 cup of boiling water for 5 to 10 minutes. If you'd like a stronger flavor, let the mixture steep for a longer duration. You can also add other herbs such as chamomile, lavender, or cinnamon to enhance the flavor of the tea. Enjoy!

Even if you haven’t traveled the world, you likely know about the storied place mint tea holds in Moroccan culture. Just the name Moroccan Mint brings to mind the labyrinthine markets and smoky bazaars of Marrakesh, the sand-swept deserts and the jade oases of the countryside. Is there any sight more marked of hospitality than the standard mint tea pour, starting at the base of the cup and rising to head level in one continuous, unbroken steaming stream, spilling nary a drop?
