About Tea, herbal, brewed, Hohoysi (Hopi)
Greenthread (Thelesperma) is a wild sunflower relative of the American Southwest, brewed for generations by Navajo, Hopi, and other Native nations into the amber herbal drink known as Navajo tea, Hopi tea, or cota. The slender stems and thread-like leaves are gathered, often tied into small bundles, then dried and steeped into a mild, earthy, faintly sweet infusion that's naturally caffeine-free. It's traditionally sipped both as an everyday beverage and as a gentle wellness tonic, and today it's finding wider popularity with foragers and tea lovers.
The flavor sits somewhere between green tea and a light chamomile, and it's pleasant hot or iced. To brew, simmer or steep a bundle in hot water for several minutes until the color deepens to a warm gold, then sweeten to taste. Kept dry in a sealed container, the bundles hold their flavor for a long time, offering a simple, rooted taste of the desert Southwest.
