If you’re experiencing an excess of mucus, hot tea can help to loosen and expel it from your respiratory tract.
Mullein tea is especially effective at doing this, so drink it with a bit of honey to fight inflammation and soothe a sore throat. Not only will you feel better quickly, but you’ll also be killing off any bacteria or viruses that may be causing your symptoms.
To make this excellent mullein tea, you’ll need these ingredients:
1 ½ cups – water
2 teaspoons – mullein leaves
1-2 teaspoons – raw, local honey (optional)
1 teaspoon – dried spearmint (optional)
Follow these instructions:
Boil the water.
Put the mullein leaves in a strainer or tea ball, then steep them in boiling water. (Alternatively, you can put the leaves directly into the pot with the water and strain after steeping.)
Steep spearmint leaves separately from mullein leaves, and then combine the teas just before drinking.
Steep mullein leaves in a covered teapot or saucepan for 15 minutes.
Add honey to taste, then drink while hot.
