Linseed Tea

An incredibly soothing drink, linseed tea (sometimes referred to as flaxseed tea) helps to hydrate the body efficiently and quickly.  It has a glutinous texture once prepared which is how it targets hydration and holds the linseed’s Omega 3 properties ready to be dispersed.
 
Drink 1 mug daily and see the difference to mood and emotion, skin and hair and general well being.  

​Speak to me for more information and if you're unsure about how and why this is a useful tool, book a consultation to delve further.
 
The Recipe
In a large pot or pan, place -
2 tbsp linseed (golden or brown)
Cover with water (approx 1 litre) and bring to the boil.
Remove from heat immediately. 
Leave for 12 hours (or over night), covered.
Simmer (on a low heat) for 1 hour with no lid.
Top up with extra water if necessary.
Sieve immediately and discard the linseeds.
 
Can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Becomes very thick when left, dilute with water as necessary (I like to use warm or hot water, depending on the weather). 
Add honey for a sweeter flavour.
