Which Muskoka Girls White Pine Needle products are the best for me?
Ultimately, it's all about what you prefer. Using tea bags is fast and convenient, making it a great way to begin your Muskoka Girls White Pine Needle journey. If you have a French press, brewing our tea with loose needles or branch tips becomes even simpler. Plus, you can gradually increase the amount you drink each week based on your preferences. Our needles can be brewed twice, and remember to refrigerate them between steeps.
Our concentrated white pine oil is potent, so you only need 1-2 drops under your tongue each day. It has a strong, lingering taste, similar to oregano or grape seed extract.
Alternatively, our water-based white pine distillate is lighter in taste and can be mixed with water or juice. Taking 25 drops of the distillate under your tongue is equivalent to 1-2 drops of our white pine oil extract.
Many customers buy a combination of products: tea bags for when you are just starting and want a convenient warm cup of coziness; bulk steeping needles or branch tips for increased concentration; and oil or distillate for a quick and easy stow in your bag when on the go.
How do you brew loose needles and branch tips?
A French Press or Bodum is a coffee maker that costs less than $20 at any store that sells kitchen supplies. It allows you to make bigger amounts of tea without much effort. You can add as many chopped needles as you like, slowly increasing the amount each week. Let it soak for 15-20 minutes (or longer if you want a stronger flavor). You can keep the French Press in the refrigerator to enjoy cold tea later or the next day. Don't forget that you can reuse the needles up to two times. Here's a helpful tip: Fill your water bottle while you're out and about!
How do I store my Muskoka Girls White Pine Needle products?
Our tea products are natural and harvested when you place an order. Please keep the Muskoka Girls white pine tea bags, branch tips, and needles in the fridge. They stay fresh for 3 months in the fridge and up to a year in the freezer.
