DIRECTIONS FOR BREWING YOUR TEA:
Step 1 – Bring 1 cup of water to a rolling boil.
Step 2 – Add 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 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.
