Recipe Text:

1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried hyssop
1 teaspoon dried sage leaves
1 cup water, barely boiled

Place the herbs in a teapot. Pour the boiling water over them, cover
and steep 10 minutes. Strain and sweeten with honey. Cool a bit and
sip slowly in 1-ounce doses as needed (up to 2 cups a day for no
more than a few successive days).

Do not use excessively. The tea can be gargled an ounce at a time
for topical relief of a scratchy throat. For sipping, combine with
plenty of honey for its throat-coating action.
