INGREDIENTS
- 1 fresh oregano leaf (washed)
- 1 cup warm water
- 1 teaspoon honey (optional, for sweetness)
- 1 slice lemon (optional, for brightness)
INSTRUCTION
- Prepare the leaf: Wash the oregano leaf thoroughly to remove any dust or residue.
- Heat the water: Warm 1 cup of water until it is hot but not boiling. Boiling water can sometimes overpower delicate herbal notes, so a gentle heat is ideal.
- Steep the oregano: Place the oregano leaf in a cup and pour the warm water over it. Allow it to steep for 5–7 minutes, giving the leaf time to release its flavor and aroma.
- Optional additions: For a sweeter or brighter taste, add honey or a slice of lemon. Stir gently to combine.
- Serve: Enjoy the infusion warm, or let it cool and sip it as a refreshing herbal drink.
SERVINGS
This recipe makes 1 serving, perfect for a single cup of infusion. It can easily be scaled up by using additional leaves and water if you wish to prepare more.
