Today’s herbal infusion : 1 part herb to 20 parts water. Similar to herbal tea but steeps for longer. Most herbs release their nourishing and medicinal qualities in about 6-7 hours of steeping in a closed container.
I make my infusions at night and strain and refrigerate in the morning. Reminder, some herbs have a very strong flavor so I recommend starting with a 1/2 ounce of herb at first to get acclimated to the flavor. Also, infusions are much better if you drink them cold or hot.
