apple-like flavor; beautiful dark red branches |

In
the days before corn syrup-laden sodas, settlers of the
19th century brewed their own refreshing drinks from locally
gathered wild herbs, and Manzanita berry was a favorite
throughout the West. The tea was called “cider”
because of its tasty apple-like flavor (the word manzanita
is Spanish for “little apple”) and it was
traditionally brewed during the autumn to winter months.
