The only suggestion I have is dependent upon whether or not there is a typo
in the preceding sentence. Did you dry and crush black currant leaves or
the actual berries?


Typo.
I used crushed dried leafs.
On their own they make a nice herbal "tea".
But the flavour gets lost when i mixed them with regular tea.
I used berries to today but i just dont think thats how the supermarket
tea is made. it was messy and the tea looked pitch black.
