Quick answer
Brew Tummy Tone loose leaf tea at 212°F (100°C) for 5–7 minutes using 1 teaspoon of leaves per 8 oz of water to support digestion and curb sugar cravings.
Why Tummy Tone is a great post-meal tea
Tummy Tone blends Peppermint, Licorice, and Aniseed Myrtle to help settle your stomach after eating. The natural sweetness from licorice can also reduce the urge for sugary snacks, making it a practical choice for digestive health.
Because this is a caffeine-free herbal infusion, you can enjoy it any time of day without affecting your sleep.
How to brew Tummy Tone tea for digestion
- Boil fresh water: Heat filtered water to a rolling boil (212°F / 100°C). Herbal teas like Tummy Tone need full boiling temperature to extract the beneficial compounds from the roots and leaves. Don't use water that has been sitting in the kettle for hours; always start with fresh cold water.
- Measure the tea: Use 1 heaped teaspoon (about 2–3 grams) of Tummy Tone loose leaf tea per 8 oz (240 ml) of water. Adjust slightly if you prefer a milder or stronger brew. A common mistake is overfilling the infuser; the leaves need room to expand for proper infusion.
- Steep for 5–7 minutes: Pour the boiling water over the leaves and cover your cup or teapot. Let it steep for 5 minutes for a balanced flavor, or up to 7 minutes for a more intense taste and stronger digestive support. Steeping longer than 8 minutes can make the tea bitter due to the licorice root; set a timer to avoid over-steeping.
- Strain and enjoy: Remove the infuser or strain the tea into your cup. Sip slowly after a meal to aid digestion. The tea is naturally sweet, so taste before adding any sweetener. If you find the licorice flavor too strong, try a shorter steep time next time rather than diluting with water.
