Description
Linden grows in the temperate climates of Europe, Asia, and North America. While referred to as a lime flower, linden is not related to the familiar green lime fruit. It has been used in Europe for centuries and some evidence suggests that linden offers effective support of the immune system. A healthy immune system means that the body has the ability to fight infections. Studies also suggest that linden may be effective as a bodily aid in maintaining healthy digestion.

Directions
Hot tea brewing method: Bring freshly drawn cold water to a rolling boil. Place 1 tea bag for each cup into the teapot. Pour the boiling water into the teapot. Cover and let steep for 3-7 minutes according to taste (the longer the steeping time the stronger the tea).
Iced tea brewing method (to make 1 liter/quart): Place 6 tea bags into a teapot or heat resistant pitcher. Pour 1 1/4 cups of freshly boiled water over the tea. Steep for 5 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into your serving pitcher straining the bags. Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste. [A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to double the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water].

I wasn’t quite sure what it was or how I could use it so I did a little research and this is what I came up with. Linden is also called Basswood or Limetree and its’ flowers are used for making teas, liquid tinctures and other remedies. Many people who are familiar with herbal remedies recognize Linden as an herb that can help boost your immunity and induce sweating and elimination to help relieve symptoms of cold and flu. What a lot of people are not aware of, however, is that Linden is also a mild sedative that can help to calm your nervous system and help to reduce blood pressure. What an ideal way to naturally heal your body and help prevent further infections! Parents will also find this to be of special benefit to children who are irritable or fussy or are experiencing problems with sleeping. Simply give your child a cup of Linden Tea at the end of the day and they will have sweet dreams the whole night through! This is also an excellent remedy for your own restless nights and, just as chamomile tea would soothe you into a peaceful nights’ slumber, Linden can do the same. I actually have tried this out for myself as I do experience the occasional sleepless night and I must admit I was very pleased to wake the next morning to the realization that I had, at last, slept a whole night through and actually felt refreshed and ready to take on the day! Linden Teas are available at ZooScape.com in four ounce and eight ounce loose versions and packages of twenty-five and fifty pre-made tea bags.

Excellent for insomnia!
I have been using this tea for years for its soothing and soporific properties. I drink it with a slice of lemon and little sugar.
