leaf into two or three pieces.
Add it to the hot water.
Add mint or ginger if desired.
Cover the saucepan and steep for about five minutes.
Strain thoroughly.
Taste the tea before adding honey or lemon.
Because Cuban oregano has a powerful flavor, one small leaf is usually enough.
Serve warm.
A Gentler Mint Version
If the flavor is too strong, use half a small Cuban oregano leaf.
Add three or four fresh mint leaves.
Steep in two cups of hot water for about five minutes.
Strain and serve.
This version is lighter and refreshing enough to enjoy after
