White Sage Leaves

When you have a sore throat, a nice soup and a good warm tea with honey is a great way to soothe it. Next time you have a sore throat, consider white sage leaf tea with lemon and honey!

To make the tea, infuse 1tsp of the sage leaves with a cup of hot water for about 15 minutes and drink a few times a day for your throat. If you're pregnant or nursing, though, you're advised to stay away from this herb.

Pregnant or nursing mothers can still make a cup of warm water with lemon and honey ~ that always soothed my sore throats during my pregnancies!
