To make burdock root tea, first, buy fresh burdock roots. Begin by cutting them into 1-2 inch chunks. Then, using a potato peeler or a knife, shred the root chunks into thin strips, which might look like bark peelings. Place this outside to dry in the sun for a few hours. 

Once they are dry, place them in a frying pan and heat them up, but do not use oil. They should roast quite easily if you heat them for 5-10 minutes and you want the color to be a rich golden brown. Once they are cooled, they can be brewed into burdock root tea. Store the excess for later use in a mason jar kept in a cool, dark and dry place.

Place the burdock root strips in a teapot. Once done, bring the water up to a boil in a stainless steel pot.

Remove the stainless steel pot from the stove and let it cool for 2-3 minutes. Then pour it into the teapot.

Allow the mixture to steep for 5-10 minutes.

Thereafter, pour the tea, add any natural sweeteners to it, and enjoy!
