Lymph Love Tea Recipe

No ratings yet

This refreshing herbal blend combines traditional lymphatic herbs with dandelion leaf and nettle to support healthy lymph flow, fluid balance, and everyday nourishment.

It uses a simple 2:1:1:1:2 ratio, with cleavers making up the largest portion of the blend.

Tip: If this is your first time making the tea, I recommend starting with a small batch so you can try the different flavor variations before committing to a full jar. To make a test batch, combine 2 tablespoons cleavers, 1 tablespoon each calendula, dandelion leaf, and nettle, and 2 tablespoons peppermint, ginger, or hibiscus.

Ingredients

½ cup dried cleavers
¼ cup dried calendula petals
¼ cuo dried dandelion leaf
¼ cup nettle leaf
½ cup dried flavoring herb of choice (peppermint, ginger or hibiscus)

Instructions

To Make The Blend

If your calendula petals are long and thin, pulse them a few times in a clean coffee or spice grinder to break them into smaller pieces. This helps them disperse more evenly throughout the blend instead of collecting toward the top.
Add the calendula and remaining herbs to a bowl and gently toss until evenly combined.
Transfer to an airtight jar and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Because dried herbs can have very different shapes and weights, give the jar a gentle shake or stir before measuring out each serving.

To Make One Cup

Add 1 tablespoon of Lymph Love Tea to a mug or tea infuser.
Pour 8 ounces of just-boiled water over the herbs, cover, and steep for 10–15 minutes.
Strain and enjoy warm or chilled.
