Equipment

  • Small saucepan or kettle
  • Teacup or mug
  • Tea strainer or fine mesh sieve
  • Spoon

Ingredients
  

  • 2 teaspoons anise seeds
  • 2 cups freshly boiled water
  • 1 teaspoon honey or sugar
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice or a small slice of ginger or a pinch of cinnamon

Instructions
 

Step 1: Let The Anise Gently Simmer

  • Place the anise seeds in a small saucepan and pour in 2 cups of hot water. Set it over medium heat and bring it to a light boil. Once it starts bubbling, lower the heat and allow it to simmer softly for about 10 minutes so the seeds can fully infuse the water with their flavor.

Step 2: Strain And Enjoy

  • Carefully pour the tea through a fine mesh strainer into your cups. Sweeten with honey or sugar if you like. For an extra touch, add a squeeze of lemon, a bit of fresh ginger, or a sprinkle of cinnamon. Serve warm and enjoy.
