Organic Elderberry (Sambucus nigra)
Use spring or filtered water. Good water is an essential part of brewing a great cup of tea.
Relax. Some of the most enjoyable aspects of tea are the calmness and ritual that surround it. Take some time for tea!
Quick Brew Directions: Pour freshly boiled water over tea bags in your chosen mug, cover, and steep 5 to 7 minutes.
Full Strength (decoction) Directions: When dried, Elderberries get tough and they need to be gently simmered for maximum strength. Use a stainless pot and stainless or wooden utensils. Use one tea bag per cup of water, cover and bring to a gentle boil briefly, then turn down the heat and simmer for 10-20 minutes. Extra tea can be stored in a sealed glass jar for a day or two in the refrigerator
