Parsley Tea and It’s Benefits
Making Parsley Tea
Place approximately 1/4 cup of fresh parsley in an infusion basket. Put the basket into a cup or tea pot and pour 1 cup of filtered boiling waterover it. Allow to steep for 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the basket to remove the parsley. You may want to sweeten with honey and a fresh bit of lemon juice to enhance the flavor. Enjoy!
Someone in the gardening course I’m in chose parsley as their plant presentation for the week, covering the growing and the benefits of parsley, including parsley tea. Parsley as a food garnish I was all over, but tea hadn’t occurred to me.
So I tried to it and my verdict is;
a] refreshing!
b] really benefits from a dash of lemon, honey, ginger..whatever you have.
I used fresh [green] herbs, and it was a bit…plant tasting.
Which all tea is Y/Y? So you could do worse, but if I wanted to recruit people to drinking a tea that they can make, minus all the packaging of commercial tea, I’d put some ginger honey in it!
