After boiling the water, allow it to cool down for around
2 – 3 minutes before the tea is placed in it. The ideal tem-

Herbal and Fruit Teas
•
Herbal teas, such as camomile tea, peppermint tea, fennel
tea etc., are made up of various herbs and aromatic plant
parts. They are traditionally used in medicine and have long
been a staple of almost every household cupboard.
•
Fruit teas consist of various fruit constituents and are often
derived from juice or preserved fruit production. The ma-
jority of fruit teas are based on a basic mixture (comprising
apple, rose hip, hibiscus fl ower) and are offered in many
different versions.
•
Place the tea in hot, freshly boiled water. The ideal temper-
ature is 95°C.
•
Allow the tea to infuse for 5 – 10 minutes depending on
the type. The longer the tea infuses for, the stronger its
fl avour will be.
In rare cases, herbal tea mixtures may contain germs
(such as salmonella) which are killed off by being heated.
Herbal tea must therefore always be infused using boiling
water. This is the only way to obtain a safe product to
consume!
Herbal tea mixtures also contain spores which are not
killed off by boiling water. They can germinate in warm
water. For this reason, infused herbal tea should not be
left standing for several hours.
