Sage Tea? How do you make it?

Has anyone made sage tea from scratch? Love the series You Are What You Eat. However when Dr Gillian McKeith mentioned drinking sage tea (clean you out & reduce sweating etc) she didn't mention how to make it. Do you put in the leaves into boiling water as they are - fresh? Or do you have to dry the leaves? I've now bought a plant and am not sure how to proceed from here? (Must just add that I don't intend to buy ready made as am now growing it fresh)

Many thanks in advance

my aunt makes this... you use fresh leaves, probably about 3 - 5 for 1 mug (adjust as you like it - tear the leaves up), add boiling water and let it steep for 10-15 minutes. if you buy it in the shop it'll be dried but it is exactly the same making it this way. you can add honey if you want it a bit sweeter
