Parsley tea is a refreshing, herbal drink packed with health benefits. It’s known for detoxifying properties, supporting digestion, and acting as a natural diuretic. Making parsley tea at home is incredibly simple, and it requires just a few ingredients. Whether you’re looking to improve your health or simply enjoy a light herbal tea, here’s how to make parsley tea with fresh parsley.
Ingredients:
- 1 handful of fresh parsley (about ¼ cup)
- 2 cups of water
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional)
- 1 teaspoon honey (optional, no sugar)
Instructions:
- Wash the Parsley
Rinse the fresh parsley thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or impurities. Shake off excess water and roughly chop the parsley, including the stems and leaves, as both are rich in nutrients. - Boil the Water
In a small pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. - Steep the Parsley
Once the water reaches a boil, turn off the heat. Add the chopped parsley to the water and cover the pot with a lid. Let the parsley steep for about 5-10 minutes, depending on how strong you want the tea to be. The longer you steep it, the more potent the tea will be. - Strain the Tea
After the parsley has steeped, strain the tea into a cup using a fine mesh strainer or tea infuser to remove the parsley pieces. - Add Lemon and Honey (Optional)
For extra flavor and health benefits, stir in a teaspoon of fresh lemon juice or honey. Lemon adds a refreshing citrus twist, while honey naturally sweetens the tea without adding sugar. - Enjoy Your Parsley Tea
Serve the tea warm or let it cool down for a refreshing iced tea. Enjoy it as part of your daily wellness routine! -
