One of our assignments was to create a wellness program for ourselves and I created this recipe as my coffee substitute. I make this tea for groups that I run, for friends and family. Everyone is always asking me to make it when they come over. I always have some in the fridge, ready to add the oat milk and honey for guests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-prosemirror-content-type=\"node\" data-prosemirror-node-name=\"paragraph\" data-prosemirror-node-block=\"true\"\u003eDandelion root is considered an Alterative, also known as a blood purifier.

The harder plant material in this tea require you to make a Decoction. This means you will simmer the tea with the top on for at least an hour to allow the roots, sticks and buds to open and release their essential oils and medicinal properties into the water. Depending how strong you like your tea will depend how long you simmer. After an hour, you can strain 3\/4 of your tea into a tea pot, using a strainer or a sieve. If you like you can do a second decoction to get the most out of your plant material)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-prosemirror-content-type=\"node\" data-prosemirror-node-name=\"paragraph\" data-prosemirror-node-block=\"true\"\u003eI like to add oat milk and honey or you may prefer to have it as it is if that is your preference.
