Chamomile blossoms have a slight sweetness and a mild apple-like flavor (the Spanish call Chamomile "Manzanilla" which translates to "little apple") with a soothing floral aroma. This relaxing blend of organic chamomile blossoms and organic lavender brews a harmonius infusion with a naturally calming energy and is a popular caffeine-free herbal tea blend.
Heat water (filtered, if possible) to a low boil, add one teaspoon of loose blossoms per cup (apprx. 8 ounces). Infuse the blossoms for 3–4 minutes depending on taste preference. Chamomile teas are often served with honey.
INGREDIENTS: Organic Chamomile from Egypt, organic lavender. Blended in the USA.
