Kratom, a tropical tree native to Southeast Asia, has been used for centuries for its potential benefits. Some people claim it supports pain reduction, energy, and mood enhancement. One popular way to consume Kratom is by brewing it into a tea.
In this post, we'll explore three methods to make Kratom tea: using crushed leaf Kratom, Kratom powder, and Kratom extract.
Lets Discover Easy and Effective Techniques to Prepare Your Kratom Tea at Home
Method 1: Brewing with Crushed Leaf Kratom
Ingredients (adjust as needed for volume and strength):
5-10 grams of crushed leaf Kratom per 1 cup of water
Honey, lemon, or other flavorings (optional)
Instructions:
Boil the Water: Start by bringing water to a gentle boil.
Add Crushed Leaf Kratom: Once the water reaches a gentle boil, add the crushed leaf Kratom. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 45 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even extraction.
Strain the Tea: After simmering, use a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth to strain the tea into a cup, removing the Kratom leaves.
Add Flavorings: Kratom tea can have a bitter taste. Adding honey, lemon, or other flavorings can enhance the taste and make it more enjoyable.
Enjoy: Your crushed leaf Kratom tea is ready to drink. Sip slowly to gauge its effects.
Method 2: Brewing with Kratom Powder
Ingredients:
½ to 1 teaspoon of Kratom powder per cup of water
Honey, lemon, or other flavorings (optional)
Instructions:
Boil the Water: Bring water to a gentle boil.
Add Kratom Powder: Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and add the Kratom powder. Stir well to avoid clumping.
Simmer and Stir: Let the mixture simmer for about 15-20 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure the powder is fully integrated into the water.
Strain the Tea: Use a fine mesh strainer or coffee filter to strain the tea into a cup, removing the powder residue.
Add Flavorings: As with the crushed leaf method, you can add honey, lemon, or other flavorings to improve the taste.
Enjoy: Your Kratom powder tea is ready. Sip and enjoy the benefits.
Method 3: Brewing with Kratom Extract
Ingredients: Note: there are many brands and strengths of Kratom extract. The number one consideration in brewing tea with Kratom is to know how much extract is needed to result in the results you desire.
Review the strength of the Kratom extract. Determine how much is needed to ensure a cup of tea is about 5-10 grams per cup. Adjust dose as desired.
2 cups of water
Honey, lemon, or other flavorings (optional)
Instructions:
Boil the Water: Start by boiling 2 cups of water.
Add Kratom Extract: Reduce the heat to a simmer and add the Kratom extract to the water. Stir well to ensure it dissolves completely.
Simmer Briefly: Since Kratom extract is highly concentrated, you only need to simmer the mixture for about 5-10 minutes.
No Straining Needed: Unlike the other methods, Kratom extract dissolves entirely in the water, so straining is not necessary.
Add Flavorings: Enhance the taste with honey, lemon, or your favorite flavorings.
Enjoy: Your Kratom extract tea is ready to drink. Start with small sips to measure its potency.
Final Tips
Dosage: Adjust the amount of Kratom used based on your tolerance and desired effects. It's always best to start with a lower dose and gradually increase if needed.
Experiment with Flavors: Kratom tea can be bitter, so don't hesitate to experiment with different flavors like ginger, mint, or even fruit juices to find what you enjoy most.
Hydration: Kratom can have dehydrating effects, so ensure you drink plenty of water throughout the day.
