Preparation Steps
Roasting the Barley
In a dry skillet over medium heat, add 1 cup of barley. Stir constantly for about 5-7 minutes until the barley is golden brown and fragrant.
Boiling Water
In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil over high heat.
Brewing the Tea
Once the water is boiling, add the roasted barley to the pot. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 20 minutes.
Straining the Tea
After 20 minutes, remove the pot from heat and strain the tea into a teapot or pitcher, discarding the barley grains.
Serving Suggestions
Pour the tea into cups. If desired, add honey to sweeten, a slice of lemon for flavor, and mint leaves for garnish.
