Yogi Tea recipe
Make at least 4 cups of Yogi Tea at a time. It's a good idea to make large batches at a time, and store it in the refrigerator without milk; then add milk when you want to drink it. It can stay fresh in the refrigerator for about a week.
For ONE cup, the measurements are: 10 oz. water 3 whole cloves 4 whole green cardamom pods (cracked open is best) 4 whole black peppercorns 1/2 stick cinnamon 1 slice ginger root 1/4 tsp. black tea (optional) 1/4 cup milk Boil the spices for 10-15 minutes, with the top on the pot(just leave it open a crack to let a little of the steam out). Add black tea and steep for 2 minutes. Add milk, then bring to a boil.
Remove immediately from the stove, and strain. Add honey to taste. For 2 quarts use: 20 cardamom pods 20 peppercorns 15 cloves 5 or more slices of ginger root 3 cinnamon sticks 1 tbs. black tea Boil at least 30 minutes. Add 1 qt of milk. Yogi Tea is also available in pre-mixed packages, and in tea bags. (See References for address of Ancient Healing Ways.)
Yogi Bhajan says about Yogi Tea: "If you take a really a good amount of Yogi Tea, it will keep your liver very well. It is said to help the liver. And when we started in the sixties, people who had drug habits, who couldn't even move, we put them on Yogi Tea." Yogi Tea is actually a combination of foods. It is a tonic to the nervous system. It can help to balance your system when you are feeling out of balance. It has been used often as a remedy and preventative measure for colds, flu and diseases of the mucous membranes. Black pepper is a blood purifier. Cardamom is for the colon. Together they support the brain cells.
Cloves help support the nervous system. Cinnamon is good for the bones. Ginger helps strengthen the nervous system and is very good if you have a cold, flu, physical weakness. It can help women when they are experiencing menstrual discomfort, such as cramps or PMS symptoms.
You can try making Yogi Tea with extra ginger when you are feeling a cold or the flu coming on. If a man takes a cup of Yogi Tea after intercourse, it can help to replenish his body. In addition, Yogi Tea diluted with milk, can be very helpful to a child who is experiencing the pains of teething.
