How to Make a Hot Infusion
Everyone knows how to make a basic cup of tea, right?! Sure, it is easy - but to make a really potent and medicinal version there are some important steps that shouldn’t be skipped!
If I have asked you to make a hot infusion of herbs follow these steps for best effect:
Place 1-2 Tablespoons of dried herb (or teabag) in 8 oz of just boiled water.
Use a plate or teacup cover to ensure that your tea is not losing vital medicine in the form of steam!
Allow herbs to steep for 15-20 minutes
Remove cover and enjoy!
If making larger batches, strain and refrigerate unused portion for up to 5 days.
