Preparations:
The inner bark of Pau d’Arco is available in the form of a tincture. Traditionally, Pau d’Arco is prepared as a decoction.
To prepare a decoction, 2 tbsp. of the powdered inner bark is used for each 3 cups of water. Bring water to a boil in an open ceramic pot, allow the water to cool slightly, and then add the powder. Allow the mixture to boil for 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low and place the lid on the pot. Allow the mixture to simmer for 20 minutes. Pour the mixture through a fine strainer and allow it to cool for a time before drinking. Refrigerate unused portions in a well-sealed container.
