Organic Oatstraw has a soft and mellow mildly grassy, herbaceous and slightly sweet flavor with a fresh scent, free of any musty notes. These oatstraw tops are picked at the best times for maintaining potency. Then cut and sifted for easy use in many applications. Make an herbaceous wellness tea. Mix it with red raspberry leaves or dried lemon balm for a relaxing and flavorful hot beverage. Make oatstraw vinegar for cooking uses. Add it to your DIY lotion and bath product recipes, too.
To prepare as a tea, pour 8 oz. boiling water over 2 tsp. herb. Cover and steep 5-10 minutes, strain and serve immediately.
Latin Name: Avena sativa
