The Hedgerow Tea Guide — Enamel Field Mug (12 oz)

Description

Practical hedgerow infusions in a rugged, fireside-ready enamel cup

A durable companion for morning hearths, garden potting benches, and trailside kettles. The Hedgerow Tea Guide Enamel Mug takes practical foraging wisdom off the shelf and puts it directly into your daily routine.

Engineered around a panoramic reference print, this mug outlines the medicinal actions, identification, and brewing notes for three essential British hedgerow plants: Elderberry blossom (Sambucus nigra), Meadowsweet (Filipendula ulmaria), and Nettle (Urtica dioica). Directly beside the handle sits the universal Restorative Tea Formula, giving you exact ratios and steeping times to extract maximum volatile oils and nutrients without needing to consult a book.

Crafted from heavy-gauge stainless steel coated with high-gloss white enamel and capped with a polished silver rim, it is lightweight, shatterproof, and built to handle boiling water over an open flame or stovetop.

On-Cup Reference Details

• Nettle (Urtica dioica): The mineral tonic. High in iron; drink blanched spring tips for deep restorative energy and natural allergy relief.

• Meadowsweet (Filipendula ulmaria): Hedgerow aspirin. Brew sweet summer blossoms for stomach-buffered relief from tension headaches and aching joints.
