Instructions
Prepare the Banana Peel: Wash the banana thoroughly to remove any dirt or residue. Cut off the ends, and if desired, slice the peel into smaller pieces to help it release more nutrients.
Boil the Water: In a small pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil.
Add the Peel: Add the banana peel pieces to the boiling water. Let it simmer for 10 minutes to allow the nutrients to infuse into the water.
Strain and Serve: After simmering, strain the tea into a cup. Add a dash of cinnamon or a bit of honey if you’d like to enhance the flavor.
When to Drink Banana Peel Tea
For best results, enjoy this tea about an hour before bed. The natural compounds in the banana peel will help you relax and prepare for a good night’s sleep.
Other Tips
Freeze Leftover Peels: If you don’t want to make tea every day, freeze banana peels and make a batch when needed.
Add to Smoothies: Instead of tea, you can also blend a small piece of banana peel into your smoothie for an extra boost of nutrients.
Give banana peel tea a try, and you’ll find that this simple drink can make a real difference in your daily routine. It’s a wonderful way to reduce waste and enjoy some surprising health benefits!
