Damiana
Native to South America and the southern regions of North America, damiana
is a small shrub with toothed, pale green leaves and reddish stems. It has
been used since ancient times for its purported aphrodisiac qualities by
the native peoples of Mexico. Damiana has also been used as a stimulant
for the nervous system, an energy tonic, and as a natural remedy to
address anxiety-related disorders. In vitro studies, as well as those
performed on mice, suggest a potentially positive benefit for use in
disorders of the urinary tract. Human clinical trials have yet to confirm
its efficacy in the area of sexual virility - that for which it is
renowned.
Directions
Hot tea brewing method: Bring freshly drawn cold water to a rolling boil. Place 1 tea bag for each cup into the teapot. Pour the boiling water into the teapot. Cover and let steep for 3-7 minutes according to taste (the longer the steeping time the stronger the tea).
Iced tea brewing method (to make 1 liter/quart): Place 6 tea bags into a teapot or heat resistant pitcher. Pour 1 1/4 cups of freshly boiled water over the tea. Steep for 5 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into your serving pitcher straining the bags. Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste. [A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to double the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water].
