Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Dried chamomile flowers
- 1 tablespoon Dried mint leaves
- 1 tablespoon Dried lemongrass
- 1 teaspoon Dried rose petals (food-grade)
- 1 teaspoon Honey (optional)
- 4 cups Boiling water
Instructions
In a medium-size teapot or heatproof bowl, combine the dried chamomile flowers, mint leaves, lemongrass, and rose petals.
Heat 4 cups of water to a rolling boil and carefully pour it over the herb mixture.
Cover the teapot or bowl with a lid or a plate to trap the steam and let the tea steep for 8-10 minutes.
While the tea is steeping, prepare 4 cups or mugs. If you would like a touch of sweetness, add 1 teaspoon of honey to each cup.
Once steeped, strain the tea through a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth into the individual cups or a serving pitcher.
Stir the tea gently in each cup to dissolve the honey, if added.
Serve the Prairie Tea warm, and enjoy the soothing, floral, and herbal flavors of the prairie!
