What are infusions?

An infusion refers to a type of drink obtained by introducing a plant or parts of it, generally leaves, roots, or fruits, into boiling water.
This process allows the water to acquire part of the flavour and properties of the plant, as soluble elements are extracted from the herbs, fruits, roots, or leaves during brewing.
Traditionally, infusions have been consumed for their flavour and medicinal properties, as many of the plants used offer relaxing, invigorating, astringent, or antiseptic benefits, among others.

What types of infusions are there?
