Mormon Tea (Ephedra Viridis)
Mormon Tea (Ephedra Viridis)
Mormon tea (Ephedra Viridis) is native to the U.S. Southwest and Mexico. A
stunted, weather-beaten shrub, Mormon tea has furnished a refreshing
beverage for residents of Mexico and the American Southwest since Aztec times.
By one account the name refers to the early Mormon settlers, who abstained
from regular tea and coffee, but drank the beverage made from this plant. The
tea is brewed from the powdered twigs.
Although no ephedrine is found in the American ephedras, proponents of
Mormon tea maintain that it works as a decongestant and asthma remedy, like
its ephedrine-rich Chinese relative, Ma Huang. In the desert, people chew a
piece of the twig to relieve the pain of sunburned lips.
