Kratom, also known as Mitragyna Speciosa, is a natural herb accessible as a dietary supplement. For generations, Southeast Asian natives in Malaysia, Indonesia, and Thailand have used this herb. Kratom leaves were traditionally brewed to make kratom tea.

Many kratom newbies find that a mild cup of kratom tea helps them get started on their kratom adventure. While kratom powder is simpler to prepare, some kratom enthusiasts believe that kratom tea is far more enjoyable, particularly in flavored combinations.

Starting your day with kratom tea might be a game changer whether you need a little pick-me-up or a level head with focus. If you want to switch from kratom powder or capsules to kratom tea, this blog is a great place to start.

Origins of Kratom Tea

The kratom tree, which is closely related to the coffee plant, is a herb native to Southeast Asia and is scientifically known as Mitragyna speciosa. The leaves of this untamed plant are gathered and brewed as crushed kratom leaves. While kratom does not contain caffeine in the same way that coffee does, it does include active chemicals like Mitragynine.

Southeast Asian natives have been using kratom for centuries. The locals consumed or brewed the kratom leaves into kratom tea.

Kratom tea, unlike other types of kratom ingestion, has a more gradual start of effects. It takes about 30 minutes to take effect and lasts for several hours when enjoyed with each sip.

How to make Kratom Tea?

There are two basic methods for making kratom tea. Kratom tea bags or powder can be used. The most effective method is to utilize kratom tea bags, comparable to regular tea bags available at Kratom shops.

Using Kratom Tea Bags

While powdered or loose-leaf teas can produce kratom tea, the process can be messy.

This is why kratom tea packs are so effective. Simply place the tea bag in a mug and fill it with hot water, just like other tea bags. Allow the tea bag to steep for 10 to 15 minutes or until it reaches its characteristic amber color.

Using Kratom Powder

Your preferred kratom strain may not always be accessible in tea bags. The only other way to create kratom tea is with kratom powder. While kratom powder can produce kratom tea, the texture, and flavor may not be as smooth.

To accomplish this, combine the kratom powder with boiling water and steep for 5-10 minutes. After brewing the tea, strain the powder through a cheesecloth or a coffee filter for the ultimate kratom tea experience.

Kratom Tea Vs. Other Consumption Methods

Each cup of kratom tea has 4 grams of crushed leaves. When preparing kratom tea, use 1-2 tea bags. We do not advocate consuming more than two cups in 24-hours.

Because kratom tea is not as potent as other kratom products, a larger serving size may be required if you want a stronger effect. To feel the effects of kratom powder, kratom tablets, and kratom capsules, consume 2.4 grams. You will require even less kratom extract, which is made from mitragynine concentrations.
