*Please remember to always make sure you rinse and dry the flowers before using them on your food or use an edible variety specially grown for human consumption. This idea is for decorative purposes only.
Have you tried this?
Why not dry your favourite flowers and use them to create a personalised blend of tea? Fill empty tea bags such as these by Natural Tea Bag with loose flowers and herbs, seal and steep for 3-4 minutes for a delicious, unique tea made in minutes!
Say it with flowers… and tea
If you love tea and you love flowers (who doesn’t?), there are plenty of creative ways to combine the two. We love this DIY rose petal and vanilla tea, which is sweet, mellow and delicately fragrant. Or for a visual feast, serve up a traditional Asian flowering tea and watch in awe as the flowers unfurl inside your cup. For summer’s balmy days, keep it chilled with rose and hibiscus iced tea or go all out with a flower themed tea party full of fragrant floral treats.
