Dong Quai Tea Bags by Celebration Herbals

Dong quai tea is primarily known for its use in women's health, particularly for easing symptoms associated with the menstrual cycle and menopause, such as menstrual pain and hot flashes. It is also used to improve blood circulation, support anemia treatment, and provide antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits.

This herb has a tough cellular structure and some heat is required to release all of its characteristics and flavour. Use one tea bag per cup of hot water in a stainless steel or glass pot, cover, boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 to 20 minutes. This is known as the decoction method. Extra tea can be kept in a covered glass jar for a day or two in the refrigerator.

If you desire a pleasure tea or quick brew, use one teabag per cup of hot water. Pour boiling water over teabags, cover, and let steep 5 to 7 minutes to taste.
