Benefits of Linden

How to make linden tea? How to brew it best?
There are a few different methods of preparing linden. While some consume it by boiling it with water in a teapot, according to some experts, linden should be brewed by putting it in hot water without boiling. Now let's talk about both methods and how you can differentiate their flavors. If you want to get the full flavor of linden, put your lindens in a teapot and wash them well. After draining the water, put your teapot on the stove and add water and let it boil. After boiling, remove from the stove and let it rest at room temperature for 15-20 minutes. Strain the flowers and consume with pleasure.
The other method is much more practical. Put as much linden as you want to consume into boiled water and brew it like this until it changes color. You can do this in a glass or a glass teapot. It will be more beneficial for your health to do it this way instead of boiling it on the stove. Then you can strain the flowers and consume it. You can add ginger, lemon or cinnamon to both varieties if you wish, and at the last stage you can add honey to sweeten it.
How should linden be stored?
Let's talk about how to best store lindens that are dried in season and will be enjoyed all winter. You can store lindens, which have a shelf life of 1 year, in an airtight refrigerator bag with a tight lid or in a clean glass jar that will not allow air in. If you store them in a dry and moisture-free environment, neither their smell nor their taste will change.
May it be a plentiful cure and bon appetit
