Some people include it in their evening routine to ease the transition into rest, while others prefer it in the morning to start the day gently. The key is not dramatic results, but consistency and the intention behind this small wellness ritual.
Ingredients You’ll Need
To prepare this simple, natural infusion, you only need a few things:
- 1 liter of water
- About 30 g of dried bay leaves
- Optional: 1 teaspoon of honey to soften the flavor
Choose good-quality, well-dried bay leaves from a reliable source to fully enjoy their aroma.
Step-by-Step Preparation
- Start by pouring 1 liter of water into a saucepan and bringing it to a boil.
- Once the water begins to simmer, add the bay leaves.
- Let them steep over low heat for 5 to 10 minutes, without prolonging the heating too much to preserve their aroma.
- Remove the pan from the heat, cover it, and let it rest for another 5 minutes. This allows the flavors to fully develop.
- Strain the infusion and pour it into a cup.
- Drink it plain to appreciate its full flavor, or add a little honey if you prefer a softer taste.
