Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use fresh herbs instead of dried?
The article notes that fresh top-quality herbs will produce a noticeably better blend, but acknowledges that not everyone has a garden of fresh herbs year-round — so dried herbs are the practical default and work well. 
How should I store the dry blend to keep it fresh?
The article advises storing the blended tea in an airtight container in a cool, dry, and dark place — the same conditions recommended for any kitchen spice — to preserve the freshness of the herbs.
