What is Water with Heather?
Water with Heather is a light herbal drink made by steeping heather, a flowering shrub, in hot water and straining it. It can be served warm or chilled, and its flavour is gently floral and herbaceous rather than strongly sweet.
Heather infusions are enjoyed in places where the plant is familiar; elsewhere, this is an easy alternative to everyday tea or a caffeine-free drink to sip between meals.
