Below is a general guide to brewing our herbal teas—a set of instructions designed to help you maximize the beneficial properties of your blend through a strong extraction process. This method not only draws out the rich, layered flavors of the herbs but also unlocks their potent antioxidants, essential oils, and other wellness-supporting compounds.

Brewing Instructions for a Strong Extraction

1. Measure Your Tea

   • For Loose-Leaf: Use about 1 teaspoon of tea per 8 ounces (1 cup) of water.

2. Heat Your Water

   • Begin with fresh, filtered water.

   • Bring the water to a brisk boil, ideally between 200°F and 212°F (93°C–100°C). Using water at this temperature helps release the full spectrum of phytochemicals from your tea.

3. Steep for Potency

   • Place your loose tea in your cup or teapot.

   • Pour the hot water over the tea and cover the vessel to keep the heat intact.

   • Steep for 5–10 minutes: A longer steeping time yields a richer, more robust extraction. This allows the herbs to infuse the water deeply with antioxidants, vitamins, and essential oils, which can enhance flavor and support wellness. (I personally steep 30 minutes or more for a deep extraction) 

   • Note: If you prefer a milder taste, you can shorten the steeping time. Experiment to find your perfect balance.

4. Strain and Enjoy

   • Strain the leaves using a fine-mesh strainer or tea infuser.

   • Enjoy your tea immediately to take full advantage of its freshly extracted compounds.

Cold Brew Option

For a refreshingly gentle extraction that still retains a rich profile of beneficial compounds:

1. Combine & Measure

   • Use the same ratio: about 1 teaspoon of loose tea or one tea bag per 8 ounces of water. For larger batches, adjust accordingly.

2. Refrigerate & Steep

   • Place the tea and 4 cups of cold, filtered water in a jar or pitcher.

   • Cover and refrigerate for 10–12 hours. This slow, cold extraction produces a subtly sweet infusion with a smooth flavor, drawing out a slightly different spectrum of the herbs' benefits.

3. Finish & Serve

   • Strain if necessary and serve over ice. Enjoy a crisp, revitalizing beverage that’s perfect for warm days or calming afternoons.

The Benefits of a Strong Extraction

• Enhanced Therapeutic Action: A robust extraction pulls out a higher concentration of active compounds—such as antioxidants, vitamins, and essential oils—providing a potent boost to your overall wellness.

• Richer Flavor Profile: By fully drawing out the herbal notes, the tea offers a deeper, more complex flavor experience that evolves with every steep.

• Mindful Ritual: Taking the time to brew your tea properly creates a calming, meditative ritual that not only nourishes the body but also soothes the mind.

Your perfect cup of tea is a journey of discovery. We encourage you to experiment with steeping times and water-to-herb ratios until you find the extraction that resonates with your taste and wellness needs. Enjoy your brew and thank you for choosing our teas as a part of your path to natural well-being!
