An infusion is a beverage obtained by boiling a specific herb and a tisane is a medicinal beverage which is the result of research coupled with knowledge of one or more herbs. Depending on the kind of herb, the flower as well as the leaves or stem and roots are used to make tisanes.

Their origin and use for treating certain complaints or as an after meal beverage dates back many years. Their therapeutic use is common to all cultures, although in western culture has virtually disappeared in modern medicine (even though modern medicine has availed itself of ancient knowledge of herbs to develop its formulas). Other mainly eastern cultures have always attached great importance to herbs.

The origins of herb based medicine may be traced back to Egyptian papyrus and Chinese documents from the second millennium before Christ. Whilst this knowledge was gradually forgotten in Europe, in Asia it flourished and grew in importance, until it began to spread to Europe in the 17th century and to the Americas in the 18th.

Over the years, people have used medicinal herbs for a range of therapeutic applications, and although the majority of these have not been proven scientifically, their application is based on their common use and on conventional wisdom due to the absence of other remedies for treating these minor ailments.

Let’s make a nice infusion or herbal tea!

Using the traditional method:

1. Fill a metal pan with the required amount of water, (20 cl per bag is the recommended quantity), and put the herbal tea or infusion into it.
2. Place it on the heat and let it boil for two or three minutes.
3. Remove it from the heat, cover the pan and let it stand for about 5 minutes.
4. Sweeten, preferably with honey.

Using the microwave:

1. Fill a cup or glass with the required amount of water, (20 cl per bag is the recommended quantity) and put the herbal tea or infusion into it.
2. Put it into the microwave on full power for between 2 and 3 minutes (depending on the microwave) so that the water boils for at least 1 minute.
3. Take it out, cover the cup or glass and let it stand for about 5 minutes.
4. Sweeten, preferably with honey.

CAUTION: In order to prevent damage to the microwave, use infusions which do not have a metal staple either on the bag or the label. None of our bags use a metal staple.
