How to make the tea

Tea made from botanic material — leaves, seeds, flowers, roots — is called herbal tea, and divides into infusions (tisanes) and decoctions. One to two teaspoons of herb makes a cup. The leaflet inside every box carries the specific quantity for that herb.

Infusion / tisane — for leaves, flowers or powders. Place the required quantity in one cup of boiled water. Steep for 10-15 minutes. Strain, and drink hot or cold.

Decoction — for roots, seeds or barks. Place the required quantity in 500 ml of water. Bring to the boil, remove from the heat, and let it steep for 15-20 minutes. Strain, and drink hot or cold.

If you are mixing two or more herbs, use a teaspoon of the mixture when making your tea.
