A tart, aromatic herbal tea made by steeping dried rose hips in boiling water for an extended time. Traditionally brewed on cold winter days by people seeking immune support.
Bring the water to a boil in a saucepan.
Add the dried rose hips to the boiling water and reduce the heat.
Cover and steep for at least 10 minutes, until the fruit softens and releases its color into the water.
Strain the tea through a fine-mesh sieve, divide it among cups and serve hot.
Steeping the rose hips instead of boiling them for a long time helps preserve most of their vitamin C. Anyone who takes regular medication or has a chronic condition should consult a doctor before drinking this tea regularly.
