A Cree traditional recipe on how to prepare tamarack medicinal tea: Harvest tamarack branches and bark following traditional and eco-friendly protocols.  Cut branches into smaller pieces and place them in a regular teapot with four cups of distilled water.    Bring tamarack branches to a boil for about 5-10 minutes or until you smell the fresh aroma - or until the desired strength of your tea. Strain tamarack branches and enjoy your tea. Drink cool or warm with honey and maple syrup, as desired. Recommended amount: Maximum 4 cups/day.        

INDICATIONS: Essential oils are a potent concentrate of active ingredients, so just a few drops are enough to exploit their powerful potential.
