To make into a tea just pour boiling water onto 1/2 teaspoon of powder,(quantity will vary to your palate) or a root stick or two, give a good stir and leave to cool. You might need to re-stir before drinking. A lovely sweet licorice taste and aroma which is quick and easy to make. Liquorice/ Licorice root sticks are Vegan, Vegetarian, Gluten free and dairy free.
