by

Ingredients

  • 1 avocado seed (pit), washed and dried
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon honey (optional)
  • 1 slice lemon (optional)
  • 1 small cinnamon stick (optional)

Instructions

  1. Remove the seed from a ripe avocado and wash it thoroughly.
  2. Allow the seed to dry for a few hours, then cut it into smaller pieces or grate it carefully.
  3. Bring 3 cups of water to a boil in a saucepan.
  4. Add the avocado seed pieces to the boiling water.
  5. Reduce heat and simmer for 15–20 minutes.
  6. Strain the tea into a cup.
  7. Add honey, lemon, or cinnamon if desired.
  8. Serve warm and enjoy.

Tips

  • Use a sharp knife carefully when cutting the seed, as it can be quite hard.
  • The tea has a naturally mild, slightly bitter flavor.
  • Add ginger or mint for extra flavor.
  • Store leftover tea in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
  • While avocado seed tea is popular in some home remedies, scientific evidence supporting specific health benefits is limited, so enjoy it as a beverage rather than a medical treatment.
