Start by gathering all the necessary ingredients listed above. Ensure that you have a tablespoon for measuring the marshmallow root and a cup for boiling water.
Step 2: Boil Water
Heat one cup of water until it reaches a rolling boil. On the stove, you can use a pot or a kettle.
Step 3: Prepare Marshmallow Root
Place one tablespoon of dried marshmallow root into a teapot or a heatproof cup.
Step 4: Pour Boiling Water
Carefully pour the boiling water over the marshmallow root in your teapot or cup. Be sure to cover the root completely with water.
Step 5: Steep
Cover the teapot or cup and let the marshmallow root steep in the hot water for about 10-15 minutes. This will allow the root to release its beneficial properties into the tea.
Step 6: Strain
After steeping, use a fine mesh strainer to strain the tea into another cup or teapot, discarding the marshmallow root remnants.
Step 7: Customize Your Tea (Optional)
If you’d like to enhance the flavor of your Marshmallow Root Tea, you can add a touch of honey or a squeeze of fresh lemon. This is a completely optional phase that you can customize to your preference.
Step 8: Enjoy!
Your homemade Marshmallow Root Tea is now ready to enjoy. Sip it slowly and savor the soothing goodness.
