Tea is something we can all agree on, so why not get creative this year and make your own tea? Here are three simple recipes that you can make yourself!
This light and refreshing tea doesn’t require much effort at all. Mint is great for kickstarting your metabolism and is an after-meal staple in many countries.
1. Boil your water and pour into a mug, adding your green tea bag.
2. Brew the tea bag for a moment, until the water is a light wash of green.
3. Either stir in the mint or put it in a tea strainer and hold in the water for as long as needed. The longer you leave the mint in, the stronger it will be.
4. Add a splash of lemon.
This floral tea has a huge list of health benefits, including reducing blood pressure and blood sugar levels. Hibiscus also helps balance oestrogen levels and ease the pain of menstrual cramps.
1. First, you need to prep your hibiscus flowers for brewing. If they’re fresh, remove the green part where the stem is attached and the thread-like tube in the middle of the flower. If you are using dried flowers, you don’t need this step.
2. Bring your water to a boil and pour into a mug. Add your hibiscus flowers and allow them to brew for at least three minutes. After this time has elapsed, you can either remove the flowers or allow them to settle.
3. Add your honey to the mix and stir well.
