Wood Avens Rhizome Tea is a delightful herbal infusion that brings a soothing, aromatic experience to your tea time. To enjoy this unique tea, follow these simple steps:
Ingredients:
1 teaspoon dried Wood Avens rhizome (Geum Urbanum)
1 cup (250 ml) fresh filtered water
Optional: honey, lemon, or other herbs for blending
Instructions:
Prepare the rhizome: If using whole dried rhizome pieces, gently crush or chop them to release more flavor. This can be done with a mortar and pestle or by placing the rhizome in a small plastic bag and lightly tapping.
Boil the water: Bring fresh filtered water to a rolling boil. Using clean water ensures the best taste and aroma.
Steep the rhizome: Place the crushed Wood Avens rhizome in a tea infuser or directly into your teapot or cup. Pour the boiling water over it.
Infusion time: Cover and let the tea steep for 10–15 minutes. This allows the warm, spicy, and slightly sweet flavors to fully develop.
Strain the tea: If you did not use an infuser, strain the tea to remove the rhizome pieces before drinking.
Customize your cup: Add honey or lemon to taste, or blend with complementary herbs like chamomile or mint for a unique flavor profile.
Enjoy mindfully: Sip slowly, savoring the natural aroma and the comforting warmth of the tea.
Tips for Best Experience:
Use organic or sustainably wildcrafted Wood Avens rhizome for the purest flavor.
Experiment with steeping times to find your preferred strength.
Wood Avens tea can be enjoyed hot or cold; refrigerate leftovers and serve over ice for a refreshing twist.
Store dried rhizome in a cool, dark, and dry place to maintain freshness.
