Holly Leaves are a Caffeine Source

(1/1)

TWP:
I had been looking for a replacement source for my coffee/caffeine fix.

Remember this mnemonic warning:

Holly Leaves are Lovely, but Berries are Brutal.

The Berries ARE NOT to be used, they cause sever nausea and vomiting.

The leaves of the native American Holly plant contain caffeine and make a good tea or coffee substitute.

Leaves may be used green or toasted, but should be thoroughly dried first.
