For the most flavourful tea, uses freshly boiled water and adjust steeping time to your preference. If you prefer a stronger infusion, add more flower stamens rather than steeping longer. When mixing Slippery Elm Bark powder, stir continuously to avoid clumps. You can also combine both ingredients—try adding a pinch of Slippery Elm powder to your cooled saffron tea for a unique blend. Always consult a health care professional before starting any new herbal regimen, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, or taking medicines.
