Fresh Lemongrass Tea Recipe
Experience Thai tranquility with homemade Lemongrass Tea. Simply steep fresh/dried lemongrass for a citrusy delight,that will sooth the body and mind.
Start by adding two cups of water to a saucepan. Bring the pan to a boil.
Add the prepared lemongrass stalks. To remove the stark, first remove the outer layers of the stalks. Cut off the root end and the top green portion, leaving only the lower white and pale green part. Cut the lemongrass stalks into smaller pieces.
Once you add the lemongrass to the pot, turn off the stove and allow the lemongrass to steep for 5 minutes. This duration allows for maximum flavor extraction. The longer it steeps, the stronger the strength of the tea.
Use a strainer over your teacup and carefully pour the brewed tea through the strainer.
Sweeten the tea with a teaspoon of honey or sugar. Add additional sweetener to the preferred taste.
