So the article inspired me to try some white pine tea for the first time. I'm sipping it right now, and it tastes quite good. If you live in the north try it out.
Here's the recipe that I followed:

- rglover 12y agoGood lord: Ponderosa Pine; also known as Blackjack, Western Yellow, Yellow, and Bull Pine. This pine contains isocupressic acid, which is known to cause abortions in cattle.
- lbenes 12y agoNope, definitely was White Pine, 5 needles on each sprig and black bark. Ponderosa Pine doesn't grow natively in the North-East. Oddly, people do make tea out of Yellow Pine too! Give you an idea, this stuff is pretty good. Going help myself to a second glass once I'm sure I don't have any weird reactions.
