Ingredients

2 servings

2 cups water
8 fresh sage leaves
4 sprigs fresh thyme
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
Ingredient note
Fruit juice contains far less fiber than whole fruit, so the lemon juice used here leaves little residue. If you prefer to always avoid lemon juice, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
1–2 tsp raw honey (optional)

For serving

1 lemon wedge, for serving (optional)
Can be omitted
lemon

Instructions

1
Combine the water, sage leaves, and thyme sprigs in a small saucepan. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, then reduce to low and simmer for 5 minutes, until the liquid is fragrant and lightly golden-green.
2
Remove from heat and let the herbs steep for 5 minutes, until the tea deepens slightly in color and aroma.
