Pine Needle Tea Decoction

Recipe
1 oz (28 g) Baby Pine Needles (select the newest needles, those that are at the end of a branch and light green in color)
1.5 pints (840 ml) Water
Make a decoction - Put the herbs into an enamel, glass or stainless steel pan (do not use aluminum). Bring to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes or until the liquid is reduced by one third
Place the water and needles in a thermos. Let sit over-night for 12 hours. Strain and remove the needles. Return the water to the thermos and drink the warm decoction through-out one day.
Continue to drink 1 pint (500ml) of Pine Needle Tea every day for one month. I also add honey and lemon to taste.

I may have to try this. Though I like to just have honey and cinnamon in warm water and call it a day. But this sounds good too
