hoptea

Hop tea can be made by chopping Fresh hops and put
them into boiled water , wait for 10 minutes. the hoptea
produced this way has a rather strange but lovely taste,
but is also bitter. For this reason a lot of sugar is added.
But the hops can also be combined by Mint leaves.
Remember that there are very great differences in taste
between the many hop cultivars.
