I can't say I enjoy it solo, but I really like a mix that I make of chamomile, mint, lemongrass, and a little basil Siam Queen. It's calming enough to drink at night, but refreshing enough to have during the afternoon without falling asleep. I think the other herbs help mellow out the rather overpowering of the chamomile, softening it and bringing it into a balance. You grow mint, right? I think even adding a little of that will help the taste, but still give you the effect - and I do find that the sooting effect of chamomile is real. Otherwise I wouldn't drink the stuff, because I agree with you - most of the stuff I've had is gross! You know, ChuckB, it took me quite a while to like the taste of chamomile.

Does chamomile tea you make from the garden taste better than chamomile tea from a bag? Because the chamomile tea I've had before is gross. I have a bunch of chamomile I grew from seed this year.

OMG - are you an amazing fairy godmother or what? I just ran out and ate one of the blossoms - and it's true ... peppery, nutty, but mellow. I am going to put them in EVERYTHING! I have enough of them! What a Foodsaver you are! Not the vacuum sealed bag machine variety, the super cool friend who cooks variety! XOXO! Kate my Food Sister!
