  4. Reduce heat to a simmer and gently simmer for 10 minutes, or until the water turns a light golden color.
  5. Remove from heat and carefully strain the tea through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a heat-safe mug or teapot, pressing gently on the greens to extract as much liquid as possible.
  6. Properly dispose of the used cedar greens.
