How to take our Herbal Blends
Our herbal blends are organically grown on our urban farm, handpicked and carefully harvested. We aim to use as much of the plant as possible while minimizing handling to preserve its natural benefits.
When preparing, a little goes a long way. We recommend adding about 2 tablespoons of the blend to 3 cups of water and simmering on low heat for 5-10 minutes. Once the water changes color, you know it’s ready. This creates a concentrated infusion—you can add ¼ cup of it to a mug with 1 cup of hot water and enjoy sipping it throughout the day.
For an iced version, let the blend cool, then add ice and water. And don't forget to add a touch of honey!
