Catnip Tea

By:
Roger Tim Johnson
"Very healthy, and helps one sleep at night."
To make your own:
First find a catnip plant, but make sure it's Catnip.
You may even be able to buy a plant.
After the Catnip plant has had a good start in the spring,
and the leaves are nice and Green....
pick some of them & let them dry.
To speed things up:
Use a dehydrator, or as I do.....
In this way:
Place leaves on cookie sheet, apart from each other.
Set in oven, at the lowest heat possible....
Maybe even leaving the oven door open.
Keep a very close watch on them.
When completely dry, and crispy, take out of oven.
Let them cool for a moment
Very carefully pick them up, one at a time, &
crinkle them up, in a large mouth Pint canning jar,
...or any other air tight container.
Your tea is ready to use.
