    Ingredients

    • 6 Large, Healthy Māmaki Leaves (Per 1 Cup of Water)
    • 1 Cup Water
    • Optional: Sugar, Honey, Lemon or Milk

    Directions

    1. Harvest approximately 6 large, healthy leaves for each cup of tea you want to make.
    2. Slice them into slivers and then place them into a teapot or teacup.
    3. Boil water in a teakettle then pour it over your māmaki leaves.
    4. Allow your tea to steep for about 10 minutes.
    5. Strain it and enjoy it with sugar, honey, lemon, or milk.

    Although māmaki tea tastes good and is popular, limit consumption to no more than three cups a day as it can be a strong diuretic.

    Enjoy!
