Ingredients
  • 1 four cup pot of hot water, not boiling, I run it through the coffee pot
  • 4 teaspoons very well chopped up bark, I use a coffee grinder
  • honey (natural tranquilizer) or other sweetener

Directions
  1. Have the hot water ready, I keep it on a coffee warmer after I run it through the maker to get it hot.
  2. Have the willow bark in your favorite tea brewing holder, i like cotton bags, other have these little metal balls with holes in them and then there are the really cool spoons for just a cup.
  3. Put the herb brewer into the water.
  4. Wait 15 minutes.
  5. Pour into favorite cup.
  6. Add honey to taste.
  7. Sip and relax.
  8. The pain will leave as you sip, give it 20 minutes to start.

  10. I am allergic to aspirin...go figure! It's like a speed trip, from what the Doctors say. All people are different. My hair feels like its growing, my hands shake really bad and I talk way faster then the words can form in my mouth, so I look really really weird on asprin!!! However, aspirin takes it base chemical compound from white willow bark. I can drink White Willow Bark Tea all day long for the pain in my hands and hip, and never feel like my hair is growing. YES! I do have to watch out for the buzzing/ringing in the ears which is one the the first sings of aspirin over dose. So be careful!

  12. Because it turns a interesting shade of red, the American Indians called it the blood of Mother Earth.

Thankyou. If one thing grows well around here, it white willow on the river bed.


I would love to be able to try this, but to the best of my knowledge, there isn't a white willow within a few hundred miles of where I live. :) Sounds great though, thank you.


Honey is a natrual remedy for stress and white willow bark is also a natrual pain reliever. there are many therapeutic teas like chamomile, peppermint, dandelion, and black tea.
