Ingredients
  

  • 1 - 2 Teaspoons Yarrow
  • 1 Cup Water

Instructions
 

  • After rinsing and cleaning your yarrow, place in the bottom of a mug or teapot. (NOTE: you can use a tea infuser or tea ball if desired)
  • Pour the hot water over the herb.
  • Allow the tea to steep for 5-10 minutes. You can adjust the amount of time based on your personal preference. (NOTE: Yarrow tea can taste bitter. For a milder tea, try steeping only 3-5 minutes)
  • Once your tea has finished steeping, strain out the herbs
  • Add honey or lemon to taste.

Notes

  • Clean the yarrow thoroughly to remove dirt, bugs, and any other unwanted debris in the plant.
  • Yarrow can be bitter. Young leaves are often more tender and sweeter.
  • Sweeten with honey.
  • Add zest with a squeeze of fresh or dried lemon.
