Preparing your tea.. Is it as easy as just tossing a bag from boxed tea into hot water? The answer is no !! Absolutely NO ! Herbal Tea Blends and Green Teas, for maximum results, should be purchased in bulk as a loose tea blend. Two major reasons 

1) Quality Control & Shelf Life when you purchase loose tea blends typically its for a local source insuring herbs have not been sitting around drying out and losing their medicinal properties.  What is the point of drinking a herbal tea if you not receiving ALL the amazing healing effects. When you purchase boxed tea you have no way of knowing how long it sat in a warehouse, delivery truck and on the shelf at the health food store. Loose Herbs only have a life span of 1 years if stored correctly.

2) Amount of Herbs selected for you cup of tea.. this is extremely important!! Most tea bags have 1-2 teaspoons of herbs with a loose tea blend I recommend 3-4 Tablespoons of herbs to steep for a truly medicinal cup of tea. It is one of the first forms of Ancient Medicine and we can  still benefit from the healing properties of Tea but ONLY if we use a larger amount of loose organic herbs.

Another Very Important part of the preparation of tea is the amount of time you steep your herbs. Most people steep a tea bag for a minute or two, again, not giving the herbs a chance to break down to release medicinal properties. You should always at the least steep your blend for 15-20 minutes!!! Yes that long! I like to use a bamboo strainer to steep my tea because it allows for plenty of room for loose tea. You can also buy on Amazon empty tea sachets to fill with your herbal blend.
