Fresh Stinging Nettle Tea

2 - 3 quarts boiling water in a big pot
Turn off heat
Add a bunch of washed stinging nettles
Cover and let stand for 10-20 minutes
Strain, cool, and store in refrigerator.
Taste is light and sweet like green tea
Optional: add lemon peel


Not sure what this plant is, but it is growing on a tree behind my apartment building and smells like jasmine. Lovely!
