Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon Dried elderflower
- 1 tablespoon Dried peppermint leaves
- 1 tablespoon Dried yarrow leaves or flowers
- 2 cups Filtered water
- 1 teaspoon Honey (optional)
- 1 slice Lemon slice (optional)
Instructions
Bring 2 cups of filtered water to a gentle boil in a small saucepan or kettle.
While the water is heating, measure out the dried elderflower, peppermint leaves, and yarrow. Add them to a heatproof teapot or a large mug.
Once the water has reached a boil, remove it from heat and let it cool slightly for about 1 minute. This prevents the herbs from being scorched by excessively hot water.
Pour the hot water over the herbs in the teapot or mug, making sure they are fully submerged.
Cover the teapot or mug with a lid or a small plate to trap the steam and essential oils. Allow the tea to steep for 8-10 minutes.
After steeping, strain the tea into a serving glass or mug using a fine mesh strainer to remove the herb particles.
Taste the tea and add honey, if desired, for sweetness. Optionally, garnish with a slice of fresh lemon for added flavor and vitamin C.
Serve the tea hot, sip slowly, and allow it to warm your body naturally.
