How to Make a Herbal Tea
You can make a herbal tea by starting boiling 1–2 cups of water in a pan. Once the water is boiled, add 1–2 teaspoons of dried Bichhoo Booti leaves.
Let the mixture simmer for 3 to 5 minutes so that the nutrients from the mixture will start to get absorbed into the water.
After it has simmered, turn off the heat. Let the tea sit for another 5 - 10 minutes. This step is also important because it makes the tea taste better.
Lastly strain the liquid into a cup & drink it while it is warm. You can add a drops of lemon juice to the tea or a teaspoon of honey or a slice of fresh ginger to get more health benefits from the tea.
