LEARN HOW TO PROCESS YOUR OWN YAUPON TEA FOR A WEEK SUPPLY

[@SylviaLeDoux]

Boil your leaves a second or third time. It’s gets better each time. It’s the cousin to Yerba Mate. They keep adding hot water to the cup all day in South America.

Great video April! Yaupon is so awesome, appreciate you sharing your knowledge!

[@WildherbswithApril]

Thank you Sarge! I still have some of the yaupon left from this video, lol. It could have been process enough yaupon for two weeks.

Thank you! I just bought a Yaupon shrub. Where did you get the large round flat drying basket? I looked for one of those last year and didn't find one.

[@WildherbswithApril]

Hi Maria, congrats on your yaupon shrub! I got that basket from Mount Pleasant Antique Mall, I bought it to put on my wall but it gets used for drying herbs too much so it stays in the apothecary.

Thank You! Great video. Id like to see a better close-up of the plant while foraging it, to help locate some. The surroundins, thanks. F.C., Clearwater FL

The Yaupon we have here in Covington La. have much smaller leaves with jagged edges and of course the female plant has toxic red berries. I didn’t know there were different varieties of Yaupon Holly. I’m exploring the idea of making Matcha with em.

Same here in NW Florida

[@SouthWestIron]

Same with the Yaupon here in MS. I thought I had my plants identified right and now this is making me wonder. Our Yaupon here also grows into small trees some that are pretty tall. "Trunks" around 3-5 inches in diameter on some of the big ones.

Woah, awesome video! 💚 that yaupon! Thanks for the good info on baking it. And what a funny cameo at the end 🤣

[@WildherbswithApril]

Thank you, Abby! Yes, had to get CoreyPine and 7Song's take on Yaupon!

[@lamonthudson76]

Awsome information

[@stealth_striker2618]

Does it taste like tea? What’s the flavor like?

[@stealth_striker2618]

Never mind, I guess I needed to watch the entire video lol

[@merryheartyoga2924]

We are coming to the SC coast near Charleston and would like to wild harvest some. Is there a good spot you would recommend?

[@WildherbswithApril]

Yes, you could forage yaupon easily along ANY beach trail along Folly Beach or Sullivans Island (they have a lot at 16 1/2 station).

[@yoinkydoink]

what are the soft, green spherical pod-like things that grow on yaupon? Are they just the baby leaves?

[@zach9962]

How can anyone be that attractive

[@stealth_striker2618]

Agree
