Guest guest Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 How To Make an Herbal Infusion A tea is a small amount of fresh or dried herb brewed for a short time. An infusion is a large amount of (not fresh) herb brewed for a long time. An infusion extracts more nutrients than a tincture and more medicinal qualities than a tea. Most infusions are short-lived; they stay good for only two or three days. Prepare infusions in pint/half-liter and quart/liter jars with tight lids. A teapot is not as good, but acceptable. Usual dose of infusion is 1-2 cups (250-500 ml) a day, taken hot, chilled, or at room temperature. Infusions may be seasoned with sweeteners, tamari, milk, or any other additions that please your taste. Infusions can also be used as soup stocks, bath waters, hair rinses, facial washes. http://www.susanweed.com/herbal_ezine/Weed_letter_Feb-02.htm#recipe Diana Gonzalez Free Ipod-really! http://www.freeiPods.com/?r=10441055 Nothing wastes more energy than worrying - the longer a problem is carried, the heavier it gets. Don't take things too seriously - live a life of serenity, not a life of regrets. -Unknown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
