Meadowsweet Herb - Herbal Tea

Google
 

Meadowsweet Herb

Found growing in damp meadows, ditches and pond or river banks, Meadowsweet is a perennial herb common to Europe, Eastern US and Canada.

Meadowsweet has creeping roots, long and thin reddish stems and produces white five peddled flowers with protruding stamens.

In the late 1800’s a component of the Meadowsweet plant was used to create an ingredient in the drug Aspirin that is still used today. Along with Vervain and Water Mint, Meadowsweet was considered sacred to the ancient Druids. The herb is aromatic and the flower scent is not the same as the scent of the leaves which give a more almond aroma.
