DIRECTIONS FOR BREWING YOUR TEA:
Step 1 – Bring 1 cup of water to a rolling boil.
Step 2 – Add 1 -1.5 tsp of pine needles to the water as soon as it starts to boil.
Step 3 – Remove the saucepan from the heat source, and cover. Allow the tea to steep for at least 15-30 minutes. Increase tea potency by allowing the tea to steep overnight. This results in a deep, reddish-brown color as a higher concentration of compounds were released into the water.
Step 6 – Pour the tea through a strainer to remove the pine needles.
Step 7 – Add sweetener of choice, if desired. Some find freshly squeezed lemon enhances its flavor paired with honey.
