About this Recipe
I absolutely love floral teas, and Chrysanthemum Flower is no exception. While in Singapore, I had the pleasure of trying it in various forms, but the spa version was simply divine.
The aroma of the tea was like walking through a fresh garden, and the addition of lime gave it a delightful citrusy kick. The honey provided just the right amount of sweetness, and the tea was so refreshing on a hot sauna.
It was the perfect way to unwind and relax after a long flight.
Instructions
Place your tea in a tea basket or strainer and set into the the pot. Leave enough room in the basket for the flowers to double in size once steeped.
Pour boiling water over the tea. Let it steep for 3 - 5 minutes. Remove the tea basket and reserve the tea. (A batch of chrysanthemum can be steeped more then once.)
Add the honey and lime juice and stir until the honey has dissolved. Garnish the cups of tea with lime wheels and serve warm.
