How to make Pine Needle Tea

If you spend enough time out in the backcountry, hiking or backpacking, eventually you get tired of drinking water. Some variety is nice. Enter Pine Needle Tea. In this video, my buddy Matt, from Jerking The Trigger, and I go over how to make some pine needle tea. It is honestly pretty tasty, especially as a welcome treat compared to cold water on a cold day out in the mountains.

If you are unfamiliar and not able to properly identify the trees in your area, don’t try this.
