Feel Good Tea
 
 
Author:
Serves: 7½ cups
Ingredients
  • 1 bunch of fresh mint
  • 1 4-5 inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled and sliced
  • 1½ (1 whole and a half) lemon, sliced
  • 8 cups of filtered water
  • 5 echinacea tea bags (I prefer Traditional Medicinals brand)
  • 5 sleepytime or chamomile tea bags
  • 6 raspberry zinger tea bags (I prefer Celestial Seasonings)
  • honey
Instructions
  1. In a large pot, add mint, sliced ginger, lemon slices and 8 cups of water. Turn the heat on low and cook for 30-40 minutes. This will slowly infuse the water.
  2. Bring to a boil, and add the tea bags. Turn off heat, stir and let steep for 15 minutes. Using a sieve, strain the tea. Add honey to desired sweetness as you serve a cup, that way the honey is most effective. Allow whatever you are not drinking cool and store in the refrigerator. Just warm up as much as you plan to drink. I would freeze what you don't plan to drink it in about 3-4 days. To get ahead, sometimes I will make a batch to go straight in the freezer (after it cools) so we can have it on hand. Preferably wait to sweeten until serving.
