Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons Fenugreek seeds
- 2 cups Water
- 1 tablespoon Honey (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice (optional)
Instructions
Measure out 2 teaspoons of fenugreek seeds and gently rinse them under cool water to remove any impurities.
In a small saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a gentle boil over medium heat.
Once the water is boiling, add the rinsed fenugreek seeds to the saucepan.
Lower the heat to a simmer and let the seeds steep in the water for 8-10 minutes. The tea will develop a light amber color and a distinct, earthy aroma.
After steeping, use a fine mesh strainer to strain the tea into serving cups, removing the fenugreek seeds.
If desired, stir in 1 tablespoon of honey and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice per cup for added sweetness and a hint of citrus flavor.
Serve the tea warm and enjoy its comforting, healthful qualities.
