Easy To Make & Healthy Mullein Tea

Hey guys in this video we make a Mullein tea to clear up chest congestion and help with coughs. Mullein is a well known herb for it's expectorant qualities in herbalism as well as being a rather safe medicinal plant overall. Easy to identify and easy to use this is a plant you must know if you're interested in foraging. The whole plant can be used from the leaves and flowers to the root and seeds plus it has a host of other uses like being good at expelling worms.

This tea can be made from mullein leaves, flowers, and/or the root and you can choose to use the plant fresh or dried. Another benefit to mullein tea is it's taste, which is slightly reminiscent of a green and black tea blend. While it is called a tea, you actually need to make a decoction instead of steeping the herb in hot water. To make a decoction of mullein simply boil 1 - 2 tablespoons of the chosen plant parts in 1 cup of water for 10 - 15 minutes, strain and sweeten if desired.
