Delicious and incredibly nourishing... This is a very easy to make tea you can enjoy all winter. All you need to do is collect the nuts in the fall and store them somewhere cool and dry. They'll last for years.
1) Take a handful or roughly 1 cup of nuts and smash them up (some layers of newspaper with nuts inbetween and a hammer will do just fine)
2) Lightly roast them in a pot with no water at first, just to get the flavors started (optional)
3) Cover with water, (better yet... cover them with freshly tapped maple sap!) roughly 1 gallon of water for a cup of crushed nuts will make a nice brew.
4) Simmer for HOURS. We love doing it on the woodstove, and start it the day before we want to have the tea.
5) Ladle tea with floating nutmeat into a mug, add a splash of maple syrup, and enjoy one of the best tasting teas on earth.
Literally 1-2 hours of collecting nuts in the fall can mean gallons and gallons and gallons of delicious and filling tea you can enjoy the whole winter.
