Step 1

Combine the fir needles, orange zest, cinnamon chips, cardamom pods, star anise pods, ginger, and peppercorns.

To prepare the tea, steep one heaping tablespoon of the mixture in 8 to 10 ounces of near boiling water.

Step 4

Infuse for 5 to 7 minutes or longer if desired, then strain in a serving mug. Sweeten with raw honey if desired.
