Herbal Tea Infusions

Herbal Tea Infusions

Herbal tea is the oldest and simplest most common form of delivering tasty and therapeutic herbs into the body.

Loose herbal tea is satisfying and enjoyable; these delicious and nourishing beverages make a lovely healthy and natural drink to compliment to your morning, and offer relaxation in the evenings and can be drunk at any time as a substitute for caffeine tea and coffee.

A common conception about herbal tea is that it has to do with the tea plant. Tea in this context is meaning a hot drink; herbs infused in hot water. The correct term is an herbal infusion this generally associated with tea, as tea is the most common herbal infusion. Mostly, herbal infusions are taken without milk, unlike "tea" which is generally taken with milk.

Herbs that can be infused or brewed into water are mostly the leafy or most aerial parts of the plant. The more woody parts like the bark, stems or the roots are a bit tougher and will need to boil in water for a short time, then strained, this is called a decoction.

Herbal teas are normal drank fresh and hot, however an herbal tea will keep in the fridge for a day and can be drank cold. To make iced herbal tea, follow the same method. Remove the herbs once brewed. Cover the container and then put it in the refrigerator to cool. Add ice and a little apple juice to sweeten.

To make an herbal tea, add the correct amount of the dried herbs in to a teapot or caffitiere, and then add the correct amount boiling water and allow "brewing" and infusing, the strain out the herbs, and then drinking the liquid.

Remember to keep your dried herbs in an airtight container so that they will retain there qualities.
