Olive leaf infusion is a popular herbal remedy known for its numerous health benefits. Whether you want to strengthen your immune system or simply enjoy a soothing beverage, making your own olive leaf infusion is easy and cost-effective. In this step-by-step guide, we’ll walk you through the process of creating this delightful and health-promoting drink.

What You’ll Need

Before we start, let’s gather all the necessary ingredients and tools:

  • Dried olive leaves (available at health stores or online)
  • Filtered water
  • A pot with a lid
  • A stove or electric kettle
  • A strainer or tea infuser
  • Optional: honey, lemon, or other herbs for flavor

Step 1: Measure the Olive Leaves

Begin by measuring out two teaspoons of dried olive leaves per cup of water. You can adjust the amount based on your desired strength and taste preferences.

Step 2: Boil the Water

Fill your pot or kettle with filtered water and bring it to a gentle boil. If using an electric kettle, simply pour the boiled water into the pot.

Step 3: Add the Olive Leaves

Once the water is boiling, add the measured olive leaves to the pot. Reduce the heat to low, cover with a lid, and let it simmer for about 10 minutes.

Step 4: Strain the Infusion

After the simmering time is up, carefully strain the olive leaf infusion into a cup or teapot using a strainer or tea infuser. This will help remove any lingering leaf particles.

Step 5: Add Flavors (Optional)

If desired, you can enhance the flavor of your olive leaf infusion by adding a teaspoon of honey, a squeeze of lemon, or other herbs like mint or chamomile. Stir well to combine.

Step 6: Enjoy Your Olive Leaf Infusion

You’re all set! Find a cozy spot, relax, and enjoy the delightfully refreshing and nourishing olive leaf infusion you’ve created. Feel free to drink it hot or let it cool down for a refreshing iced version.
