Hi Cassandra! Fascinating article here, much appreciated. My favorite herbal tea mix (that I've been drinking for maybe 15 years during the winters) uses holy basil as a prime ingredient. I'll include a link to the blend by STEAP Teas. They call it "Holy Detox."

I drink it purely for flavor, but love the idea of all these beneficial compounds swirling around, too.

STEAP used to be a Philly original, but I think the owner decamped to Ohio and just does mail orders now.

Overall the best tea purveyors I've ever found.
