Calming Catnip Herbal Tea Recipe
Calming Catnip Herbal Tea Recipe (a perfect blend of 3 herbs to soothe and calm)
Servings 1
Ingredients
1 Serving
- 2 tsp Peppermint
- 2 tsp Catnip
- 1 tbsp Chamomile - Heaping Tbsp.
- 16 oz Filtered Water
10 Servings
- ⅓ cup and 2 Tbsp Peppermint
- ⅓ cup and 2 Tbsp Catnip
- ¾ cup Chamomile
- Use 3 T per 16 oz of filtered water
Instructions
- If you're making the larger 10 serving batch, combine all of your herbs together in a glass jar and shake to combine. You can also put them into a coffee grinder and give it a few pulses to break up the chamomile and blend everything together well.
- If you’re using the larger recipe, then use 3 T of herb for each 16 oz cup of tea. If you're just doing 1 serving, then just put all of your herbs into your cup.
- Steep your herbs for 4 minutes, then strain. Make sure you squeeze all of the water from your herbs, since this liquid is the most potent.
- Sweeten with stevia, if desired, and drink as needed throughout the day. This tea is particularly helpful right after a meal and before bedtime.
Notes
It may seem like this is a large amount of herbs for 1 cup of tea, but these are the recommended dosages for each herb to get medicinal results. Yes, food is medicine, but there is a difference between using them for taste in food, and using them to reap their therapeutic benefits.
