Hi Chloe. Simply clean the tips under cold running water. And yes, you can brew the tes with fresh fir tips. The flavor, whether from dried or fresh fir tips will be mild. Sounds like a fun project!

Hi,
I am making your cookies for a class project on Douglas Firs. If I am gathering the tree tips from a forest, how do you recommend I wash the pruned tips? Also, I am looking to serve Douglas Fir Tip Tea with my cookies, however the product is not sold here in Vancouver. How could I brew the tea on my own with the fresh tree tips?
Thanks ahead of time,
Chloe
