☕ Brewing Instructions
Traditional Dandelion Root Tea
Because dandelion is a root, gently simmering it helps create a fuller herbal beverage.
- Add 1–2 teaspoons of Queen Tee's Premium Dandelion Root to 8 oz of water.
- Bring the water to a boil.
- Reduce the heat and gently simmer for 10–15 minutes.
- Remove from heat.
- Strain thoroughly.
- Enjoy warm.
These preparation amounts and simmering instructions are provided on Queen Tee's product page.
🌿 Make It Your Way
For a lighter, milder cup, use a little less root or shorten the simmering time.
For a stronger, more robust herbal flavor, use slightly more root or allow it to simmer longer.
☕ Caffeine-Free Coffee Alternative
Looking to reduce your caffeine intake?
Dandelion root can also be roasted until dark brown and brewed as a naturally caffeine-free alternative to coffee. Queen Tee's specifically recommends roasting the root, grinding it if desired, and brewing it as a coffee substitute.
Its naturally earthy, roasted character makes this an interesting choice for people who enjoy a deeper, more robust beverage.

🌿 Herbal Tea Tip
Since dandelion root is firmer than leaves and flowers, simmering it as a decoction rather than simply steeping it can produce a richer, fuller cup.
For an earthy herbal combination, try:
🌿 Dandelion Root + Burdock Root + Orange Peel
The earthy character of dandelion and burdock pairs nicely with the bright citrus flavor of orange peel.
Or roast your dandelion root for a deeper flavor and enjoy it as a naturally caffeine-free coffee alternative.
