I found this information on a list (actually it was several different posts) I have tried to give credit where it was posted. But anyway, this is an excellent list of teas and information about teas for any kitchen witch (or anyone at all!) It is always nice to be able to suggest a tea for someone who is upset, sick, tired, scared and know that the herbs in the tea have not only a medicinal value, but magickal as well!! Feel free to charge the tea before drinking it yourself or serving it up!

Herbal Teas (Matthew green - spells)

Many of the herbs used in spells are also of great use as herbal teas.
Taking the power of an enchanted herb into your body is one of the most
powerful ways of working magic with herbs. Some herbs are highly toxic and
for this reason it is wise to buy only those herbs you are already familiar
with from cooking or those herbs specifically sold as herbal teas through
reputable outlets.

Teas are made by pouring a cup of boiling water over a teaspoon of a
powdered herb and allowing it to steep for three to five minutes. The tea
is then strained. Place your hand over it and close your eyes while you say
a silent improvised chant or prayer asking that the tea bring the desired
energy into your life. When the tea has cooled,
drink it.

To ward off negative energies:
Sage tea = Protective.
Rosemary, allspice, fennel, nettle, fenugreek, lemongrass = banish
negativity.

To encourage loving energies: Orange rind, rose hip and cinnamon. Other
herbs to draw loving energies are parsley, red clover, tansy, chamomile,
jasmine petals and chrysanthemum.

For Luck and opportunity: Allspice, lemongrass, aniseed, lemon, lime,
eyebright and thyme.

To draw wealth and abundance: Peppermint, spearmint and garden mint. A
mixture of one part ginger, and one eighth parts each of clove and nutmeg
are also said to attract the energies of wealth and abundance to you. Other
such herbs are basil, dandelion, horehound and sarsaparilla.

For focusing on psychic work and developing magical skills: Nutmeg,
marjoram,
oregano, borage, catnip and linden lime tree flowers.

For soothing restless vibrations: Rose hip, chamomile, valerian, balm,
hawthorn berry and maté.

For courage: Parsley, raspberry leaf, nettle, aniseed and ginger.
