You get used to the taste after a while.
My 13 year old daughter has no problem with it, even with the addition of other yummy (not) things like cordyceps, houttuynia, and the CSA, ginger, turmeric, etc. tinctures that we take along with it. She knows that without them she would not get better.
Using dried herbs is the most economical way; good tinctures are $40 a bottle and capsules are $11 for 60. Some people here are making their own tinctures with dried herbs.
We don't drink knotweed or the other herbs as a tea. We make a concentrated infusion in 1/2 c of hot water, and take 1 1/4 oz of it 3x daily. Just shoot it down and follow with pomegranate juice. This is not sipping whiskey, it's a shooter! Man up!
