How to make a perfect cup of olive leaf tea

  • 1 Las Brujas teabag is enough for a medium sized pot of tea. If using loose tea then use 2 teaspoons per teapot.
  • Boil the kettle, but wait a minute before pouring to get the most goodness from the olive leaves.
  • Steep according to taste. After steeping for just 2 minutes, the tea is a golden colour and ready to drink.
  • After steeping for 5 minutes, the tea becomes stronger and darker in colour.
  • Suggestion: Try adding some honey or a slice of lemon as a sweetener.

Here’s a very helpful video from a connoisseur here in Spain –
