Making Kratom Teas That Taste Great (4 Kratom Tea Recipes Included)

Kratom, also known as Mitragyna Speciosa, comes from the country of Asia, Thailand, and Africa. Many enjoy the herbal plant in several forms, but one form, in particular, is tea. Its popularity is surfacing to other countries for kratom’s abundant benefits and energetic qualities.

Many people enjoy kratom simply through a capsule or powdered form, however brewing it in tea form provides you a more enjoyable experience. When brewing, there are ways to make it that involves strength, quality, timing, and storing. All are essential to making kratom teas taste better. So we put together some great kratom tea recipes for you here. And you can now order crushed leaf kratom to brew your own tea!

How to Make Kratom Tea to Fit Your Desired Taste

You can start making mitragyna speciosa teas from the leaf or powder of your choosing. The best way to start making the tea depends on your personal preference as everyone has their unique likes and dislikes. You can steep it for a long period to create a stronger drink or you can steep it in lesser time for a weaker drink.

The following kratom tea recipes will require you to add 1- 4 cups of water, but the more water you have then the less kratom flavor your drink will contain. Also, some recipes will provide different ingredients, yet you can substitute each ingredient to anything you desire.

Also, the herb has an alkaloid content you can retain to receive the full benefits. In doing so, you can squeeze a lemon in a cup with either the powder or leaf for a few minutes to retain those alkaloids.

However, if you choose to skip this step, you can still keep most of the alkaloid content by using the powdered leaf. It’s quicker and you’ll still get most of the alkaloid content without working too hard to make your tea.

When starting, use 1 gram or ½ teaspoon per cup of tea then increase the dosage to your desired taste.
