Equipment

  • Organic Fennel Seeds
  • Electric Glass Kettle
  • Traditional Medicinals Organic Fennel Herbal Tea Bags

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Teaspoon Fennel Seeds
  • 1 Cup Water
  • Lemon Slices optional
  • Honey optional

Instructions
 

  • Bring water to a boil and pour a bit into your teapot to warm it up. Swirl the water around and discard.
  • Measure your fennel seeds into a mortar and use the pestle to lightly crush the seeds. (this is optional if you don’t have a mortar and pestle.)
  • Add fennel seeds to the teapot (use an infuser if desired) and pour hot water over the tea and cover the teapot with a lid.
  • Allow the tea to steep for 5 -10 minutes.
  • Strain out tea or remove the infuser if using.
  • Enjoy your tea!

Notes

  • Use fresh, high-quality organic seeds for the most flavorful cup of tea. Avoid using pre-ground or processed fennel powder as this will result in a weaker tea.
  • Use filtered water.
  • Boil your water using the stovetop or an electric kettle.
  • Steep for 5-15 minutes – depending on how strong you like your tea, steep for between 5 and 15 minutes before straining the seeds from the liquid.
  • Add sweetener or other ingredients (optional) – if desired, you can add a sweetener such as honey or sugar, a splash of lemon juice, or other herbs and spices to your cup of fennel tea.
