Ingredients:
Freshly picked dandelion leaves (or flowers for a sweeter tea)
Water
Instructions:
Clean the dandelions: Thoroughly rinse the dandelion leaves or flowers under cold running water to remove any dirt or insects.
Prepare the water: Bring the water to a boil in a saucepan. For one cup of tea, use about a cup of water.
Steep: Add the clean dandelion leaves or flowers to the pot and let them steep for about 10 minutes. The longer you steep, the more potent the flavor and benefits.
Strain and enjoy: Strain the mixture into your favorite mug, discarding the leaves or flowers. If desired, you can sweeten your tea with a little honey or enjoy it straight to fully appreciate its earthy flavor.
