Marshmallow Root Tea

Marshmallow root has been used for thousands of years in traditional herbal medicine to soothe irritated mucous membranes, including those of the mouth and throat.

Marshmallow root tea is a herbal infusion of the dried root, typically prepared by steeping in a cold infusion overnight or in a hot infusion with boiling water. When steeped, the mucilage dissolves to form a protective, slippery coating that can coat and soothe irritation.
