Ingredients
- 1 large sprig of fresh rosemary
- 4 cups water
- Sweetener, to taste (optional)
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan with a lid, add the rosemary and water.
- Cover with the lid, bring to a boil for one minute, turn off the heat and allow it to steep for 5 minutes for a lighter rosemary flavor. For a stronger flavor, steep for 10 minutes.
- Remove all of the rosemary from the pot and serve hot or store in the fridge for a cool rosemary tea. Optionally stir in your choice of sweetener.

Notes
- Adjust the flavor: We found that 1 sprig of rosemary was enough to give the tea a pretty strong herbal flavor. For an even stronger flavor, use 1 ½ or 2 sprigs of rosemary. For a lighter flavor, only use half of a sprig or opt for dried rosemary instead.
- Cover while steeping: Keep the lid on the pot while the tea is steeping to trap those wonderful flavors.
- Use a strainer: No tongs? No problem! Strain the tea through a fine mesh strainer when it’s done, then discard the leftover rosemary sprigs.
