How to prepare as tea

Bring a cup of water to a rolling boil.

Add 1-2 tsp. Dried Yarrow to a tea infuser, tea bag, or directly into your cup.

Pour the boiling water over the yarrow.

Cover the cup to retain the heat and volatile oils.

Let the tea steep for 10-15 minutes. The longer you steep, the stronger the tea will be.

If you placed the yarrow directly in the cup, strain the tea through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth.

Add honey or lemon to taste, if desired.

Enjoy your yarrow tea!
