EditSteps

  1. 1
    Collect flowers. Chrysanthemums, jasmine, dandelions, and lavender are commonly used in teas. You can use a single flower or a combination.

  2. 2
    Wash the flowers! You don't want a mouthful of pesticides and bugs.
  3. 3
    Heat up a cup (or however much tea you wish to make) of water on the stove. Get it so it's warm, but cool enough to put one's hand in. (Boiling the flowers will result in a bitter, unpleasant flavor)
  4. 4
    Put a cup of the flowers (fresh or dried) into a tea ball, or directly into the pot (you'll strain later)
  5. 5
    let the flowers steep for 2-5 minutes, tasting as you go.
  6. 6
    Strain any flower bits out using a fine strainer or a paper towel
