This is an evergreen tree with pinkish-purple flowers. The infusion is naturally caffeine-free, having a warming, cherry-vanilla taste. Lapacho has antibiotic and antiviral properties. It was used by the Incas, who ruled from the 13th to the 16th century and has been used for healing by indigenous tribes for over one thousand years. They used it to treat bacterial and fungal infections, fever, bladder and stomach complaints such as diarrhea. To drink as an attractive hot infusion use one teaspoon per cup plus one for the pot and infuse with boiling water for five minutes. For medicinal purposes, for which medical advice should be sought, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of lapacho to a litre of cold water and bring to the boil then simmer for 5 minutes. Finally, let it infuse for another 10 to 15 minutes. Drink warm or cold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTea from Grey's Teas\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur teas are loose leaf and we specialise in large leaf grades.
