Quick Overview

Bilberry has been recognized for its medicinal effects since the 12th century, when women used the berries to promote good health. The berries were once considered a cure for scurvy because of their high vitamin content.

During World War II, British Royal Air Force pilots would have a good helping of Bilberry jam just prior to a mission to improve their night vision. It was not until nearly 20 years later that scientists began to study the possibility that Bilberry might actually have a beneficial effect on vision.

Directions:
• Good water is an essential part of brewing a great cup of tea. We recommend using spring or filtered water.
• Be sure to relax! Some of the most enjoyable aspects of tea are the calmness and ritual that surround it.
• If you desire a medicinal tea: This herb has a tough cellular structure and some heat is required to release all of its medicinal properties and flavour. Use one tea bag per cup of cold water in a stainless steel or glass pot, cover, boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 to 20 minutes. This is known as the decoction method. Extra tea can be kept in a covered glass jar for a day or two in the refrigerator.
• If you desire a pleasure tea or quick brew, use one teabag per cup of hot water. Pour boiling water over teabags, cover, and let steep 5 to 7 minutes to taste. Enjoy!
