Now pour hot water from the water tank

).
Herbal tea
CAUTION
Germs in herbal tea mixtures can repre-
sent a health risk if the tea is not brewed
properly.
Always pour boiling water over herbal,
►
fruit, rooibos and spice teas (loose
and in tea bags) and allow to steep
for at least 5 - 10 minutes! This is the
only method for ensuring that the tea
is safe to drink!
Do not allow freshly brewed herbal
►
tea to stand for several hours.
In rare cases, herbal tea mixtures may
contain germs such as salmonella that are
normally killed off when heated over a pro-
longed period. If not properly brewed, they
can become a health risk, particularly for
children.
Do not allow freshly brewed herbal tea to
stand for several hours. Although the germs
are killed off by the boiling water, the spores
in the tea can survive. These can germinate
in the warm water. Herbal teas are brewed
in the same way as black tea (see section
Black tea, page 22
).
