Finding Poppy Pods.

I dont think many of us have had much luck. The good ol' days are over we must create our own now.

 

I have a few dozen Mid - Sized Tasmanian Pods with long stems I picked up a year or two ago through some website in Canada. I'm in U.S. and wouldn't chance that again with customs etc. Only inside the good ole USA.

I use 3 or 4 pods ground up in my herb grinder without the seeds and pour boiling H2O over the powder and let it steep for 4 - 6 minutes then strain through a coffee filter and add a fresh brewed a cup of Stash Licorice Tea with it - warms the Soul to the Core and then some.............Fine buzz and the seeds will sprout..........!:sunny:

 

Hey Folks, just joined and glad to have found this forum. Was wondering if these pods are good for tea?

It looks like it. If I get any I'll let y'all know

 

Thx Apple, I did order some and should get them before the weekend, hope they are the right kind for tea, if not I guess what I don't brew will end up in one of the many flower decorations at Mom's house ;-)

 

That sounds like a good idea. I might try that when I get around to it. I need to take inventory of my pods - bought a gross of medium/large Tasmanian Pods with Stems a few years ago when I was more into the tea. 4 of these pods with no seeds or stems makes a nice mellow buzz drink but it's a bit messy with the filter thing. I grind my pods in an herb grinder originally a coffee bean grinder............The stems are about a foot long or more but I never did anything with them.
