Get Your Spot!
Many of us know that a cup of chamomile tea calms the mind, and how to make a hot tea infusion. In this class, we’ll discuss the many types of herbal tea preparations like quick hot infusions, overnight infusions, cold infusions, and decoctions (boiling of herbs - typically roots). You will gain some recipes to support your nervous system, sleep, immunity, digestion and beyond!
We’ll also talk about why you would want to make one style of herbal tea preparation versus another, and how to source the best herbs to make teas (from your garden, a tea shop, the farmers market, a grocery or health foods store and online if needed). Finding great herbs does not have to be expensive!
As part of this class, I will offer a sample of various kinds of herbal teas from cold to hot infusions. You’ll also be able to make your own tea blend to take home, and you will receive the recipes we talk about and tips so you can share the power of making tea with others! This class is open to those who are curious, and want to deepen in their awareness of working with what I call our “green allies.”
These regular herbal classes at The Center SF will each be fun and interactive ways to learn more about the power of what is called “kitchen herbalism” - wonderful herbs that you can experiment with in the kitchen (and their properties for your health).
