feverfew is da bomb when it comes to dealing with migraines for me, anyway. It just tastes absolutely nasty - not as bad as hops tea, but that's not saying much. I generally brew a small cup very strong and then dilute it at least 2:1 with OJ and its bearable (if drunk quickly). I definitely recommend it though

Ah wow, thanks for saving me from the experiment, Petra...LOL! I've had more than my share of nasty teas....the worst I think was lobelia. Imagine crushing up a pack of cigarettes and making a tea from it...that's exactly what the lobelia tasted like. *SHUDDER* It was the nastiest EVER. So yah, I'm a wimp when it comes to nasty tasting tea and prefer the tincture in those cases...motherwort's another one that's best in tincture form. It sounds like feverfew would be a good candidate for tincture as well... glad to hear you've found it effective for migraines!
