Pine Needle Tea is a uniquely invigorating infusion sourced from the lush, untamed forests of Romania. Here, the tender, vibrant green needles of the White Pine tree (Pinus strobus) are carefully hand-harvested and dried to preserve their natural qualities. With its distinctively refreshing flavour and a wealth of health benefits, Pine Needle Tea is much more than just a beverage.
It’s important to note, however, that not all pine needles are safe for consumption. Our tea is crafted exclusively from the White Pine species, celebrated for its high levels of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Certain other varieties of pine may contain harmful compounds, posing risks to health. By choosing our Pine Needle Tea, you can enjoy this remarkable brew with confidence and peace of mind.
The Eastern White Pine tree, which can grow to an impressive 55 metres (180 feet), produces needle-like leaves in bundles of five – the very essence of this tea.
Rich in Vitamin C, Pine Needle Tea enhances the immune system, supports cardiovascular health, and offers relief for minor respiratory issues. Incorporate this natural, nutrient-packed infusion into your routine today and discover your favourite healthful brew.
How to Make Pine Needle Tea
Achieve the perfect brew by following our simple, step-by-step guide below:
1. Prepare the Needles: Place fresh or dried pine needles into your tea infuser.
2. Boil the Water: Heat water in your kettle until it reaches boiling point, then carefully pour it over the infuser into your teacup.
3. Steep the Tea: Allow the pine needles to steep for 5–10 minutes, depending on your desired strength. A longer steeping time will result in a more robust flavour.
4. Enjoy Your Tea: Once the tea has steeped to your preference, remove the infuser and enjoy the warm, nutrient-rich drink.
