Monarda fistulalso known as Bee Balm  


While Elaine and I were on a Sunday drive west of Three Rivers, MI, along the gravel road, I recognized a flowering herb called Bee Balm. It has a very aromatic flower. In early the days, and with some today, it was popular to brew it into a tea as used as a remedy to soothe a sore throat. Having a sore throat or not, I find the beverage very enjoyable either way.
