How to make tea

Bring water to a boil, reduce heat to low and let stand 10 min. Add all ingredients listed and simmer low for 5-6 hours with lid. Turn off heat and let cool. Strain through a sifter into a jug. Keep in fridge for up to 5-7 days. Drink 1 to 2 cups per day.

Here is a daily version using a Mesh Infuser.  Reuse to make 2-3 cups for the day. This one I used Chaga crumbs, Reishi, Rooibos, Rosehips, and Taheebo but use what you have.

Do not microwave or use high heat on the stove as it will destroy active medicinal quality in the herbs.

Drink Hot heated on the stove. (Do not bring to a boil or microwave as it destroys beneficial enzymes.) Drink cold as an iced tea with some natural sweetener, Organic raw honey, Stevia/Truvia, Agave Nectar, or Maple syrup  Enjoy!!
