Clockwise from top: black raspberry, mint, ground ivy, purple coneflower (echinacea), goldenrod, mulberry.
Just one leaf of each.
This cup steeped at room temperature for 5 hours; even this dark, it didn't taste tannic. Just green and mildly minty, refreshing. I drank it down fast, and now I have a bright feeling down my throat to my belly.
Also i had one cup steeped in boiling water for a few minutes, it was light in color. The dark was just more flavorful but not intense. So I recommend a long steep, or else blending the leaves in water and straining. Or just blend whole leaves in a smoothie.
