Honey or sugar is added to each cup separately according to personal taste.

Brew black tea at the rate of 1 teaspoon of tea leaves per cup of boiling water. Grate 30 g of ginger. Pour boiling water over the lemon to remove the wax from the peel. After this procedure, it immediately begins to exude a strong aroma. Cut the lemon into circles - one or two circles per glass. Lemon, ginger, tea and a few mint leaves (a couple per glass) should be put in a thermos, add sugar (a tablespoon per glass), pour boiling water and leave for 20 minutes.
This delicious autumn tea can be drunk in unlimited quantities throughout the day. Then brew fresh.
Strawberry
For this tea you need dried strawberries, cornflower flowers, mint leaves and black tea. For each glass of drink, one teaspoon of tea, cornflower, mint and strawberries is taken. All ingredients are placed in a prepared French press, poured with boiling water. Infusion is carried out in a warm place. In 20 minutes, all the useful substances from dry plants pass into the water and form a unique bouquet of aromas. Autumn tea should be drunk hot, adding one or two tablespoons of honey to a cup.
Rosehip
Vitamin C found inrosehip, easily passes into a solution of tea. It does not break down even when boiled. In order for the berries to give all the useful substances to our healing autumn tea, it needs to be boiled in a water bath for several minutes.
Pour two tablespoons of rose hips with a glass of boiling water and hold in a water bath for 15 minutes. Then pour into a French press, add 1 teaspoon of tea leaves and leave for 5 minutes. Tea is ready. Sweet rose hips allow you to drink it with very little honey or sugar.
September and October are the time when rose hips ripen. For autumn tea, it does not need to be dried. Fresh berries are much he althier and brew much faster - 5 minutes, and the tea is ready.
Sea buckthorn
In autumn, another berry ripens - sea buckthorn. There is no need to talk about its benefits. Everyone knows that sea buckthorn is a real storehouse of vitamins and minerals.
Make regular black tea. Put fresh sea buckthorn in a large bowl and mash with a spoon, adding a spoonful of sugar to the berries. Transfer the berry puree to a French press and cover with boiling water. After a couple of minutes, pour into cups, adding the required amount of pre-prepared black tea and honey.

Viburnum
Red bunches of viburnum attract the attention of not only birds. Connoisseurs of medicinal plants claim that viburnum is better than all autumn berries in curing respiratory diseases, that is, colds.
Few people like the taste of viburnum berries. They are bitter, besides they have a pungent smell. After frost, the bitterness softens. To improve their taste, it is not necessary to wait for winter. It is enough to freeze the berries in the refrigerator, and then thaw.
Autumn tea with viburnum should be given to children and adults who are engaged in mental work, as well as those who spend a lot of time driving a car. Kalina improves memory and promotes concentration. And what do children need most in the fall? Do not get sick when all the classmates around you sneeze and cough, and also study your lessons carefully. Kalina is an unsurpassed assistant to all mothers who have schoolchildren in their care.
The trouble is that persuading a child to drink viburnum tea is a big problem. You can neutralize the specific taste by adding mint leaves to the drink.
Viburnum tea is brewed right in the cup. Pieces of 10 berries need to be mashed with sugar, pour boiling water, put two mint leaves, wait 3 minutes and strain. Add the usual tea leaves, boiling water and honey. It needs to be taken a little more than for regular tea.
