Leave the beer and soda at home this Fourth of Jul Leave the beer and soda at home this Fourth of July and bring this instead. 
Strawberries, elderflowers, citrus peels, and peppermint steeped together for a few days make a summer cordial that tastes like the whole season in a glass.
🍓 Strawberries are rich in antioxidants and support heart health.
🌿 Elderflowers keep you cool and help with seasonal allergies.
🍊 Citrus peels add a pleasant bitterness that makes this an excellent digestive tonic before or after a big meal.
🌿 Peppermint settles the stomach after all that holiday food.
Ingredients:
2 cups finely chopped fresh strawberries
1/2 cup fresh elder flowers (or 1/3 cup dried)
2 tbsp finely chopped fresh orange peel
2 tbsp finely chopped fresh lemon peel
1 tbsp finely chopped fresh peppermint
3 cups Chardonnay, or enough to cover by 2 inches
Honey to sweeten
Orange slice for garnish
Instructions:
Fill a clean glass jar with the strawberries, elderflowers, orange peel, lemon peel, and peppermint. Pour the Chardonnay over the top to cover the ingredients by 2 inches and stir well. Put a lid on the jar and let it steep for a few days. Strain through muslin into a clean jar, letting the liquid drip through without squeezing. Add honey to sweeten and serve with an orange garnish.
You still have a few days to start this before the Fourth, and once people taste it, you’ll be the one asked to bring the drinks every time.

These next six have been sitting in your spice rack this whole time, doing more than you know. I’ve been teaching this for 35 years, and I still get emails from students who are shocked by what these everyday spices can do. Most people were never taught this, and that’s the whole reason I do what I do.
You now have 12 herbs (with Part 1 and Part 2) that can handle more than you think, so put them to work. Which herb do you reach for first?
