You don’t need a tea shop. You need to look down.
Somewhere near you, probably closer than you’d guess, there’s a patch of wild bergamot most people walk straight past without a second glance. Steep the leaves and flowers, and something happens that catches almost everyone off guard the first time: it tastes remarkably like Earl Grey. No tea bag. No store run. No plastic wrap.
This is one of the simplest recipes in the whole collection, and one of the most satisfying, proof that your own neighborhood is already stocked with things worth drinking.
It’s also the perfect entry point if you’re new to foraging. Low stakes, easy identification, genuinely delicious payoff. The recipe that turns a skeptic into someone who suddenly notices plants everywhere.
→ Steep time, ratios, and identification tips are in the app’s Premium recipe collection.
