Crafting Community Care: DIY Herbal Teas

With Kira Louzoun-Heisler, Brooklyn Botanic Garden

Whether it’s a cuppa to warm the soul, a gargle, a steam, a bath, a dye, a hair rinse, or the start to a syrup, the applications of herbal teas are almost infinite. We’ll explore the differences between cold infusions, hot infusions, and decoctions. Discuss how much herb is “enough” and taste some samples. Bring your questions! Leave with a personalized tea blend made from a selection of herbs.
