Recipe: Flowers tea
Herbal and spiced teas
May 23, 2009
It's blooming time, and I start to harvest some flowers to dry and store them for winter herbal teas.
These are clover flowers, roses and bitter orange flowers.
When they will bloom, I will add also marigold, wood sorrel, cinnamon basil flowers and flowers from other aromatic herbs.
Now, with the fresh flowers and some other ingredients fresh or dryed, I prepared a delicious and refreshing herbal tea.
