.Herbal teas, by definition, are dilute aqueous solutions that have healing properties, thanks to the presence of medicinal substances and phytocomplexes within them. Each herbal tea may contain one or more herbal drugs, generally consisting of herbs, spices or fruits. The purpose of herbal teas is indeed to give a pleasant moment of relaxation, but above all to counteract some discomfort.
In practice, we can speak of herbal teas as preparations that, through the action of hot or cold water, cause the medicinal substances contained in the vegetables or spices used to escape so as to be more easily assimilated.Basically, herbal teas are distinguished from infusions because the latter have no particular healing properties, they are also different from the teas themselves, since they usually do not contain the leaves of this plant. There are various methods for preparing herbal teas and it is very important to first select the ingredients, which must be homogeneous by function and present in the same state, i.e. all fresh or all dry
.The main techniques for preparing homemade herbal tea are three: infusion, decoction and maceration. Normally, one of these techniques is chosen based on the characteristics of the active ingredients to be extracted and the ingredients used, even if the infusion certainly remains the most common and easy to apply method. In fact, there are many different types of ready-made infusions on the market, with ingredients and proportions designed not only to maximize the healing effects, but also to have a product with a lovely taste.
In short, infusion is an extraction method that is carried out by pouring boiling water over the chosen ingredients, and then leaving them to soak for 5 to 20 minutes in a closed container with a lid. Obviously, the more time passes, the more effective the herbal tea will be, even if the taste may be very intense. The infusion is very suitable for extracting volatile active ingredients, which would be dispersed if a decoction were prepared, or for processing delicate ingredients, such as flowers, leaves and aromatic herbs.
To obtain a decoction of herbal tea, it is necessary to immerse the chosen ingredients in cold water, and then bring to a boil for a time that can vary from 5 minutes for the most delicate ingredients, up to half an hour if roots, berries and bark are used. Finally, it must be left to macerate for a few minutes with the heat off and filter the herbal tea. The last of the three techniques for obtaining an herbal tea is to immerse the ingredients in cold water and let them rest for a period that can vary from one day to even weeks, thus creating a macerate. This technique for creating herbal tea is quite useful if the substances we want to extract fear high temperatures or if the ingredients also have unwanted substances inside them, which would be extracted in
are many types of herbal teas and the preparations can ideally be as many as there are plants or spices with healing powers. The combinations between the various ingredients can be very varied but, obviously, always leaving room for creativity, the best known are those whose properties are most appreciated, both because they are very effective and because the combination is very appropriate. Among the digestive herbal teas, useful after an important meal, the combination of lemon balm and mint stands out, even if ginger can also be a valid alternative, useful even in case of a cold. Speaking of purifying herbal teas, one cannot fail to mention milk thistle, which promotes liver well-being, perhaps combined with a little licorice or burdock. If asparagus, fennel and horsetail are valid elements of a draining herbal tea, to relax you can resort to herbal teas with mallow, fennel,
lime blossom or classic chamomile.
In any case, whatever benefit you need or the moment of tasty relaxation you want, you will find your favorite herbal teas here for sale online, ready to be drunk at home.
