Borage Leaf Tea, Wine

Borage Leaf Tea, Wine


Borage leaf tea, wine
The fresh herb has a cucumber-like fragrance. When steeped in water, it imparts a coolness to it and a faint cucumber flavour, and compounded with lemon and sugar in wine, and water, it makes a refreshing and restorative summer drink. It was formerly always an ingredient in cool tankards of wine and cider, and is still largely used in claret cup.

Additions: Lemon, sugar, wine
