Learn how to brew organic epilobium (willow herb) tea for wellness. This guide covers water temperature, steeping time, and tips for the best cup.
Quick answer
Brew organic epilobium tea by steeping 1 teaspoon of the herb in 250ml of filtered water at 200°F (93°C) for 5–7 minutes. Strain and enjoy up to three cups daily.
Why water quality and temperature matter
Using filtered water prevents off-flavors from chlorine or minerals. Epilobium’s delicate compounds extract best at 200°F (93°C)—too hot and the tea becomes bitter; too cool and you miss the benefits.
Step-by-step brewing guide
- 1. Heat your water: Bring filtered water to 200°F (93°C)—just below boiling. If you don’t have a thermometer, let boiling water sit for 30 seconds. Boiling water can scorch the herb, so cooling it slightly is essential.
- 2. Measure the tea: Place 1 teaspoon (about 2 grams) of Organic Epilobium Tea into your infuser or teapot for every 250ml of water. Using too much can make the tea overly strong; start with the recommended amount.
- 3. Steep and strain: Pour the hot water over the tea and steep for 5–7 minutes. Strain or remove the infuser to stop the extraction. Steeping longer than 7 minutes may release bitter tannins—set a timer if needed.
- 4. Serve and store: Enjoy your tea plain or with a touch of honey. Store leftover tea in the fridge for up to 24 hours, but avoid reheating. Reheating can degrade active compounds; brew fresh when possible.
