Douglas Fir Forest Friend Tea
Immune supportive, deeply nourishing, Douglas fir is the aromatic star of this tea blend with ingredients of the forest. A perfect blend to fortify you body during times of illness or to support good respiratory health.
- 1 oz dried Douglas fir tips
- ½ oz dried stinging nettle
- ½ oz reishi chunks
- ½ oz Oregon grape root
- ¼ oz cinnamon chips optional
Combine ingredients in a large bowl. If your Douglas fir or reishi is still in large pieces, you may want to pulse in a food processor or blender until the mixture is of fairly uniform size.
Store in a airtight container, in a cool place out of direct sunlight.
To make tea (or more appropriately termed, decoction): Gently simmer a heaping tablespoon of the loose tea blend for 15-20 minutes in 8-10oz of water. Strain and sweeten with raw honey as desired.
