Pressure Cooker Evil Tea
Spring has arrived in Colorado, so of course I came down with a spring cold! And what do I do when I get a cold? Make Evil Tea! I knew I was going to need more that one dose, so I made a batch in the pressure cooker. I have a Ninja Foodie multi-pot, but you can use an Instant Pot or any other brand of "smart" pressure cooker.
