Ingredients

  • 3-4 cups dandelion flowers
  • 2 cups boiling water
  • 2-4 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 2-4 Tbsp raw honey this one is good if you can't find local raw honey
  • 1 cup ice plus extra for serving

Instructions

  • Rinse and drain dandelion flowers, then place in a glass pitcher or 4-cup glass measuring cup. Pour boiling water over dandelion flowers, give a quick stir, and let steep for about 30 minutes. Add lemon juice and honey, starting with the lower amounts and adding more of each to suit your taste. We like it on the upper end of both the lemon juice and honey. Add ice (it will melt pretty quickly). Pour into an ice-filled glass and enjoy!

Notes

Do not use dandelions from an area that may have been sprayed with herbicides, pesticides, or other chemicals.
