This provides better mineral extraction to improve the health-enhancing benefits."Brew 1/2 cup herb mixture per 2 quarts boiling water. Pour water over herbs and cap jar tightly. Allow to steep at least 4 hours, but up to 12 hours.Strain and drink at room temperature, cool, or rewarmed. Sweeten with honey or maple syrup if desired.
