THE GREAT AFTERNOON AFTERMEAL TEA [Tea for every occasion]

in SteemFoods4 years ago (edited)

Hello Steemit!
This one won't be too long, but it's a part of my 'A tea for every occasion' compilation,
which I thought of just now, so I'm making it a reality!

If you're looking for a tea to aid your digestion, after you couldn't handle yourself at that meal at lunch, (just like me) then this is the perfect recipe for you!

The ingredients:

  • 1/2 teaspoon of Salvia officinalis or better known as Sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon of Spearmint
  • 1/2 teaspoon of Lemon balm
  • 1/2 teaspoon of Dandelion flowers
  • 1/3 teaspoon of Green tea
(Just for illustrative purposes.)
  • Some lemon peels
  • Some ginger
(I prefer them cut into small pieces and left in the cup itself, so i can eat them up along with the tea if i feel like it.)

Be the master of your own reality and choose a herb that resonates with your preference for taste and make it the dominating one by uping it's dosage to 2/3 a teaspoon or better yet 1 whole teaspoon!

The quantities of these herbs are for a cup of 500ml. (I drink a lot of tea.)
So if you want more of a normal dosage, just put in half of what is shown in a normal cup,
or if you want more of a strong-tasting drink, just put the same amounts, but in a 250ml cup!

Don't forget to drink slowly, mindfully and with measure, listening to your body, as it is only then that the magical properties of herbs in warm water penetrate through your whole being and bring you a step closer to an enriching experience of life!

The preparation:

There's really not much to say here,
just place your herbs in a tea infuser, put the ginger and lemon outside of it, (but still in the cup) pour some hot water in and then place a small plate on top of the cup, so your drink infuses better.

(Don't be afraid to chew up a bit of those lemon peels with ginger)

Let it sit for 4-5 minutes, then finally add a spoon of thick tasty honey and you are ready to enjoy this great drink, that will not only aid your digestion, but rejuvenate your whole body if you just allow it to!

Mmm honey

This is it from me for today Steemit!
