Clinical Herbalist & Tea Sommelier FAQs

Q: What is the exact water temperature and steeping time for The Art of Herbal Tea: Perfect Blends?

Heat filtered spring water to 205°F (96°C) and steep covered for 7 mins. Delicate blossoms and green teas scorch in rolling 212°F water, whereas roots and barks thrive with a covered infusion.

Q: Can I re-steep the loose-leaf herbs for a second cup?

Yes! High-grade whole organic botanicals can be re-steeped a second time within 3 hours—simply add 90 seconds to the steeping clock to unlock the deeper mineral notes.

Q: Can I chill this herbal infusion for iced tea?

Absolutely. Brew at double strength and pour over ice, or cold-steep overnight in the refrigerator for up to 48 hours of crisp, zero-bitterness botanical hydration.

Dr. Elena Vance’s Clinical Herbalist & Sommelier Notes

To enhance the flavor, try steeping the tea in a gaiwan or a glass teapot. The delicate shape and material allow the herbs to unfurl and release their full flavor profile.
