Place on the lid (or cover your cup with a saucer). Allow the mixture to steep for 10 'to 15' minutes or overnight. Then strain the tea and serve. Drink 1-3 cups of tea a day Add if you want honey, milk or lemon wedge for flavour.
There are no reported side effects of vervain, though it is thought that due to its purgative effects, excess dosages may lead to vomiting.

In any case you should consult with your healthcare doctor before using any herb especially if you’re taking other medications or have health problems.
