Thank you. I just wanted to say that licorice root makes a good flavoring agent and that www.maya-ethnobotanicals.com sells a wonderfull tea called "Maya's Yogi Tea" Which in its own right is so good that many of my nontea drinking friends like it, but it is an exelent additive for that California PT. If you soak your nodes in water over the course of the day they will soften up so you can grind them in your blender much easier. Use the water in your tea though.

Funny, I usually mix half PT with coffee to completely mask the taste.

Mamma would also like to bring up the point that some pods may have pesticides on them. Always give your pods a quick wash before you brew.. This may add to the hangover effect of the tea. When mamma doesn't wash the pods she has now, she gets really sick for a few days and her immune system is generally low.. Wash em, wash em, wash yer balls... err i mean pods.. okay kids?
Also, Yuck (sippin' on some PT now)... Make sure that you dont use TOO much sugar.. It really makes it taste bad. For a small coffee cup of coffeetea use only 1 tsp sugar

wow, didn't see this before!! Thanks for providing this info, I had made tea in the past but it didn't turn out so well. I will certainly apply this method to my fresh poppy pods this coming warm season.

If anyone was curious, as I was, I asked Aneglakya if washing the poppies had any effect on the...flavor of the poppy, and it turns out that it doesn't. Wetting down a paper towel and scrubbing the poppy, or just using a little scrub brush will work to get any pesticides off of the pod. Don't want to risk getting sick, so always wash your pods. Thanks for the help Aneglakya.
Be smart, stay safe.

Aneglakya, I fear for you being forever possessed by the opium poppy plant.
Stay away from them and do not grow them or own any part of the plant.

Ok, you already made a thread about this, do not pollute this thread. YOU may look at it as a curse, but have you heard of a thing called moderation? Yes, most humans have no idea what that word truly means, but don't let a bunch of apples screw up the whole batch (yes, I know how the phrase really goes...) - awareness is one thing, just don't overdo it.
If you try it a few times (unless you are growing a lot of poppies, you won't get enough to satisfy a craving for long), you won't turn into an addict. You have the power, you decide whether or not you want it to own you. It is easier said than done, but still possible.

He is my friend. For I it is seen like evil. I have freedoms.
I rather have an addiction free person then an addict.
That was not very cool in my book.

i understand your sincere motives, but the second line was in an absolute, if you start with; "i think you should" or even, "its in your best interest" that would sound alot less demanding. than "Stay away from them and do not grow them or own any part of the plant." which is almost like dictating law or handing down divine command. it's an absolute statement. which, in most communication, serves the opposite of its intention. nobody wants to be told what to do or how to think. i just think its a little too pushy to be an effective influence.

I agree that this plant is a trap, but it is also a cure.
As Paracelsus "Dosis sola facit venenum" which means, It is the dose alone that makes the poison. Our poisons are our Cures.
Tis true that I have stopped my addiction. I have not indulged over six months. Daily tea drinking for 5 years can take its toll on you..
:An Ode To Poppy:
Hail lovely blossom, thou canst ease the wretched victoms, of disease can'st close those weary eyes in gentle sleep which never open but to weep
for oh' thy potent charm can agonizing pain disarm expel imperious memory from her 'feat and bid my throbbing heart forget to beat
White sleep, waking sleep lived and died, deep in darkness White sleep, waking sleep heal me with your sweet carress
Like a butterfly breaking through and letting her wings dry in the sun.
