Sage, Star Anise, and Dried Calendula Tea

1/2 of a whole star anise
10 fresh sage leaves
2 tablespoons dried Calendula flower
4 cups water

Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a medium-sized pan. While the water heats, grind the star anise with a mortar and pestle. Then add the sage to the mortar and bruise the leaves with the pestle.

When water reaches a boil, remove it from the heat, add all the solid ingredients, cover the pan with a lid, and let it steep for 20 minutes. Strain and serve.
