Pour 2 cups of water into a small saucepan.

Step 2: Add the Herbs and Spices

Strain the tea into your favorite mug.

Discard the herbs and spices.

Step 5: Enjoy

Drink warm.

If desired, add:

• Honey for sweetness

How Often Can You Drink It?

Most healthy adults can enjoy one cup per day as part of a balanced diet.

Final Thoughts

Rosemary, cloves, and star anise create a fragrant herbal tea that is enjoyable and rich in natural plant compounds. While this drink may be a relaxing addition to your daily routine, it should not be viewed as a treatment or cure for medical conditions. Pair herbal teas with a balanced diet, regular exercise, good sleep, and routine medical care for the greatest long-term health benefits.
