Chukchi:
Chukchi people used to make an infusion out of the leaves as a substitute for tea.  The name notachay means wild tea.

Чукчи заваривали листья этого растения как заменитель чая. Название нотачай по-чукотски означает «дикий чай».

Central Alaskan Yup’ik:
People used to harvest the flowers in the villages of Hooper Bay and Chevak and make a tea-like beverage.  Only a few elders remember this practice now.
