This earthy tea is just strong enough to bring together all of the incredible properties of burdock, clover, dandelion, and nettle, and it’s also mild enough for anyone to consume. Adjust the honey until the sweetness is just to taste. It’s a great idea to make a batch of this tea in the morning and leave it in the refrigerator to sip warm or cold throughout the day.

2 cups water

1 teaspoon dried burdock root

1 teaspoon dried red clover

1 teaspoon dried dandelion

1 teaspoon dried nettle leaves

2 teaspoons raw honey (optional)

Bring the water to a boil in a small saucepan or kettle. Remove the water from the heat and add the herbs. Allow the tea to steep for 15 minutes or more. Strain the tea and pour it into a mug. Stir in the raw honey if desired and enjoy!

TIPS:

• Store-bought tea bags can be used as well when loose tea is not available. Use one tea bag each of burdock root, red clover, dandelion, and nettle.
