Exact quantities, then the method.
This Twinings herbal has no caffeine and an earthy, citrussy character: lemongrass and ginger sit over dandelion and fennel, making it a little more savoury sweet than a plain herbal. Give it a proper five minute steep in just-boiled water to draw it all out.

Makes one cup. It needs no milk; a slice of lemon or a little honey suits it.
You'll need
- 1 tea bag of Twinings Detox
- 200ml freshly boiled water (100C)
- A little honey or a slice of lemon, to taste (optional)
Method
- Put the lemongrass and fennel bag in your cup.
- Pour over the freshly boiled water.
- Steep for a full 5 minutes to draw out the lemongrass, ginger and fennel.
- Lift out the bag, then add a slice of lemon or a little honey if you like. No milk needed.
- Do not rush it, as lemongrass and fennel are slow to give up their flavour.
