Is Jewelweed juice drinkable?
Question:Just wondering because I've got a lot in my yard.
Answers:
"The pods will explode at the slightest touch, hence this plant's other common name - touch-me-not. The trick is to pick a bit of stem with the pod and wrap your hand completely around the pod and squeeze very gently. After the pod bursts open, the little seeds taste a lot like walnuts."
It seems to be okay to eat, so drinking should be no different.
I found that from this website and it also has a game to play with jewelweed. Take a stick and poke at a patch of jewelweed with the pods and the pods will burst the seeds out like popcorn! lol =)
