Servings: 1
Calories: 1kcal
Equipment
- Tea kettle optional
Ingredients
- 2-3 sprigs rosemary
- 1 cup water
Instructions
- Rinse rosemary and place in a small pot. I find this herb to have a lot of debris and in need of a good rinse before using.
- Cover with water and place on high heat.
- Bring it up to a boil and simmer for 2-3 minutes or more. Simmer for a longer amount of time for a stronger flavor.
- Take off the heat and remove the sprigs. I like to do this with tongs or a slotted spoon.
- Pour the herbal tea into a mug and add additional ingredients if desired.
Tea Kettle Method
- Add water to a tea kettle or saucepan and bring to a boil.
- Place rinsed fresh rosemary sprigs into a mug.
- Pour hot water into the mug and let it steep for 5-10 minutes.
- Pull out the leaves, add any additional ingredients if desired.
- Enjoy.
Notes
- This tea can have a slightly overwhelming flavor, I highly recommend using the tea kettle method for a lighter flavor. Also, adding a few extras like ginger, honey or lemon to help add additional flavors.
- Although I use fresh rosemary leaves, dried leaves would also work. Substitute 1 tsp of dried rosemary for fresh rosemary.
- Can be made hot or cold. Enjoy as a refreshing cold brew tea in the warmer months.
