Cooling & Hydrating Herbs for Hot Weather

When the temperature climbs, the plant world offers its own kind of relief. In this hands-on class, we’ll explore the herbs that have helped people stay cool, refreshed, and balanced through the hottest months for generations. From the bright lift of peppermint to the ruby tartness of hibiscus, you’ll discover how cooling herbs work in the body and how to bring them into your daily summer routine.

Together we’ll taste our way through a spread of herbal iced teas, infused waters, and refreshing botanical blends featuring peppermint, hibiscus, lemon balm, rose, and cucumber. You’ll learn which herbs are traditionally considered “cooling,” how to combine them for both flavor and benefit, and simple ways to keep yourself hydrated and comfortable when the heat is on.

You’ll leave with recipes to recreate at home, a deeper understanding of summer’s most refreshing plants, and at least one cool drink in hand. No experience necessary just bring your curiosity and your thirst.

Perfect for beginners and anyone looking to beat the heat the herbal way.
