Dandelion Tea

Dandelion Tea uses the flower, leaves, and stems of fresh dandelions rather than only one part of the plant.

The dandelions are combined with water in a large pot, brought to a boil, and then simmered for a full 30 minutes.

Once the long simmer is complete, the tea is simply strained and served. No sweetener or additional seasoning is included.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups dandelions, including flowers, leaves, and stems
  • 4–6 cups water

Method

Combine the dandelions and water in a large pot over high heat. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 30 minutes. Remove from the heat, strain, and serve. Makes 3–5 cups.
