Green Tea Bath Bags
1 cup Green tea leaves
1/4 cup Lavender buds
1/8 cup Chamomile flowers
4 tbs Dried lemon peel
8 drops Bergamot essential oil
5 drops Chamomile essential oil
3 drops Green tea fragrance
Tea bags
Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl. Use empty tea bags and fill the bags with 2 tablespoons of the mixture and tie off. Or use a circle of muslin, drawn up and finished off with a ribbon.
You can make your own tea bag sachets by slicing open a regular tea bag and pouring out the tea leaves and replacing it with your own mix, then simply use a non toxic craft glue to close the bag back up again.
Place 2 tea bags into a bath of Warm water to enjoy this uplifting detoxing soak.

What are the benefits of using these? Besides smelling awesome :D
would juniper berries work for this? they have cellulite and decon jestion removing properties I just want to know if they would work in a "bath tea"
Green tea leaves are available in the supermarket, if they dont have loose tea then open up some tea bags. Chamomile flowers are obtainable from health food store, alternatively use Chamomile tea leaves. Lavender buds can also be bought from craft stores.
so...the green tea is easy, but is the chamomile flower and lavender buds seriously at most health food stores? any more suggestions on where to get those ingredients?
u can also call these clever bath treats "tub teas". thanks i love em'.
You can get the supplies from health food stores and your local supermarket for the tea's. Do not use potpourri it is not even close to being a substitute.
how/where do you get these ingredients? health food stores? would potpurri work? id rather use the real stuff but im not sure where to get the leavesand stuff. help!
I adore green tea and these bath bags are magnificent!
Oh I loved these, They were just divine.
I put my mix in circles of muslin and tied under running taps - it;s a lovely concoction
