Directions:
1. Place tea bag in cup with a lid
2. Pour ½ cup (4 fluid ounces) of just boiling water over the tea bag. Cover the cup and let the teabag steep for 10-15 minutes. Covering the cup helps to keep the carminative oils in the tea.
3. Press the teabag with the back of a spoon to get as much herbal goodness out of the bag
4. Cover and let cool
5. This makes a strong tea and you’ll only use a teaspoon for a baby.

Yield: 4 fluid ounces of gripe water.
