If you consider herbs and spices to be food, and if this is actually a Long Island iced tea, then we’re right back to food with faces drinking booze. Though that seems like a couple of stretches of definitions.

Did you know that herbs are the leafy part of a plant, while spices are from non-leafy sources like seeds, bark, or roots? Thus, you can get a herb and a spice from the same plant. Personally, my favorite herb is currently oregano, and my favorite spice is cinnamon.
