Upgrade the simple mint tea by adding a touch of lavender flowers. Lavender may help with relaxation, and help freshen the breath. Together with mint, it gives a delicious and potent tea with relaxing, antimicrobial, antiviral, and antioxidant properties.
To brew mint and lavender tea, use about 1 teaspoon of dry leaves. Bring water to a boil and let it cool for a few minutes. Oversteeped lavender tea may become bitter. You can easily fix this by adding a spoonful of honey. Once brewed, you can cool it down and serve it with honey and ice as iced tea.
Blend: (for 2 cups)
- 1 spoon of mint
- ¼ spoon of lavender flowers
- 1 teaspoon of honey
