Description

Loose leaf nettle brews an earthy, grassy cup with a smooth mineral finish and a taste many compare to green tea, only milder and less bitter. The dried leaf carries a mellow, vegetal flavor with light notes of fresh hay. It is naturally caffeine free, so it suits any time of day, whether you want a warm mug in the morning or a lighter drink before bed. Simple to prepare: add one to two teaspoons of leaf per cup, pour over freshly boiled water, and steep for five to ten minutes. A shorter steep keeps the cup light and grassy, while a longer steep draws out a richer, more full bodied flavor. Strain through a fine mesh, then drink it as a hot herbal infusion or pour it over ice for a refreshing cold cup. Enjoy it on its own or build your own blends. It pairs well with peppermint, lemon balm, dried citrus peel, or a spoon of honey, and makes an easy iced tea for warm days. Its clean, herbaceous base also mixes smoothly into green or black tea when you want extra depth. Adjust the strength to taste with more leaf or a longer steep. Beyond the cup, the dried leaf has a long culinary history. Stir it into simmering soups, broths, and stocks, or add a pinch to grain and vegetable dishes for a savory, spinach like note. Since the leaf is already dried the sting is gone, so it is ready to use straight from the pouch. A versatile pantry herb for cooks who like to explore green, plant based cooking. Grown to organic standards and sold as whole leaf rather than dust or fannings, so you can see the quality of what you are steeping.
