Exact quantities, then the method.
Yogi Tea Organic Alkaline Herbs is a busy, multi-herb Ayurvedic-style blend, lemongrass, fennel, peppermint and ginger with cinnamon, cardamom and liquorice. Brewed five minutes, the resulting brew opens bright with lemongrass and fennel, cools through the middle with mint, and finishes gently spiced and lightly sweet from the liquorice.

Method
- Put the Alkaline Herbs bag in your mug.
- Cover the Alkaline Herbs bag with freshly boiled water and give it 5 minutes so the herbs and spices come through.
- Lift out the bag without squeezing it.
- Taste it first; honey or a lemon slice can go in, though the liquorice already brings natural sweetness.
- Sip warm and enjoy a complex, refreshing cup.
- The liquorice gives real natural sweetness; taste before adding honey, as many prefer this blend unsweetened.
