A trip to the farmer's market this week had me discovering a new interesting ingredient - red clover! This little basket of buds came with a recipe so I decided to give it a try today.
The night before I squeezed the lemons and boiled up the buds as instructed on the little recipe note. It was extremely easy to put together and the only tip I can add is to strain the clover tea using a paper towel (scotties sponge pockets are great as they don't break down easily - line a sheet inside a strainer)
This is going to help remove any tiny bugs, and there was quite a variety in these blossoms, and they went right through the sieve the first time around.
The taste is very good, and you can read up on all the health benefits of red clover and maybe give it a try :)
