Elderflowers and lemon might easily become your most favorite herbal tea in the world. While lemon tea is a no stranger to tea drinkers, elderflowers are still not as widely used as they deserve. Some studies showed that elderberry flower may have help to relieve the flu symptoms[1]. However, the best part of elderflower tea is – the flavor. Because of its unique and sweet flavor, these flowers are popular for making syrups and flavoring soft drinks and water. They blend amazingly well with lemon too. You can use both fresh and dry flowers. Wash them before use. Elderflower usually grows freeley in nature and start blooming around May.
