Sage is a wonderful tea that you can gargle when you have a sore throat, mouth infections or ulcers. Take hot water. Add few leaves of sage into a water. Let infuse for 10 min. Add salt, 1/4 tsp. Add some fresh lemon juice. Mix everything with spoon and gargle for 2 minutes. Gargle as many times as needed when experiencing sore throat. I use them for mouth sores too. Just make tea, a bit stronger and just gargle with sage only. If you want to drink this tea, then I suggest to make it very mild and drink warm. It does have a bitter taste, but if you are fighting some sort of internal infection, this herb will help. If interested I am a Wellness Advocate for doTERRA essential oil products and sage is available as essential oil too.
