In the Know
Nutrient-rich, and a known alkalizing agent, this subtle, delightfully bright and clean tasting tea brews into a light golden hew, providing a truly drinkable cup you can enjoy day and night. Known scientifically as Medicago sativa, alfalfa leaf was introduced to the Americas (eastern) by Spanish colonizers in the 16th century, specifically to feed horses, as they believed the nutritional value far outweighed simple grass. Today, Alfalfa Leaf Tea is enjoyed the world over for its high nutritional value, and addictively drinkable flavor.
What Exactly is Alfalfa Leaf?
The western United States didn’t see alfalfa seeds until the 1850’s when they were imported to California from Chile. Though here in the U.S. we say alfalfa when ordering its sprouted form for sandwiches and such, in Britain, France, Germany, Australia, and other countries, they’ve used the word lucerne. These days, with North and South America supplying the world with most of its alfalfa, the word alfalfa is being introduced into other languages.
