Growing Tips & Tricks
When harvesting from your Strawberry pant, remember to pick green healthy leaves.
To make your Strawberry Leaf Tea;
- Take a few washed strawberry leaves, 5 for a gently soothing tea or 10 for an earthy and floral flavour.
- Take a sharp knife and chop your leaves into small pieces. You could also crush and roll them with a rolling pin to help them release their flavour and fragrance.
- You can place your leaves inside a mug for a strong flavour or inside a tea strainer or a mesh tea diffuser.
- Pour boiling water over the top and let steep for about 5 minutes. This gives the leaves enough time to release their flavour.
And you’re done! You could add a dash of lime for a citrus kick or leave it plain.
Too hot for tea?
You can brew your strawberry leaf tea and let it cool completely for about half hour. This will make a strong, flavourful tea. You can serve this over ice to give yourself a wonderfully cooling and floral drink.
