How do I make nutmeg tea?

Asked by College_girl (917points) February 20th, 2012 from iPhone

I don’t really want the tea to make me high, but I heard that nutmeg tea can help with upset stomachs and nausea, which I’ve had for a few days.

I’m just concerned I’ll put too much nutmeg in. I’m 18, 5’ 4”, and around 125 to 130 lbs. What would you consider a good amount? And how much water should I use?

Why not try ½ tsp baking soda in 4oz water? Works great, no risk of getting ‘high’.

Have you considered ginger root?

I’m with @tom_g! Just go to the store and buy some ginger tea.

Less than ½ tbsp should be ok if you dont want to trip.

I can also recommend ginger as an anti-emetic.
