Frequently Asked Questions
- What if I don’t have a tea infuser?
- You can use a fine-mesh strainer to strain the herbs after steeping, or even a clean piece of cotton cloth.
- Can I make iced tea with these recipes?
- Absolutely! Make the tea as directed, then let it cool and refrigerate. For best results, make it slightly stronger as ice will dilute the flavor.
- How much tea does each recipe make?
- Each recipe is designed for a single 8 oz (240ml) cup of tea. Simply double or triple the ingredients for more servings.
- Can I reuse the herbs for a second cup?
- Most herbs can be reused once, though the second cup will be milder. Add a minute or two to the steep time for the second infusion.
- Are these teas safe during pregnancy?
- Some herbs should be avoided during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Always consult with your healthcare provider before consuming herbal teas during pregnancy.
