Flowering tea(blooming tea)
Sometime ago I bought flowering tea balls. It was for the first time I experienced this kind of gorgeous tea that blooms in the hot water. They are marvellous. You can call them blooming or flowering tea. Basically, it is tied green tea leaves and flowers. It is combination of green tea leaves with edible flowers such as Jasmine, rose, lily,….
When steeped in hot water, that usually takes few minutes, the flowering tea delicately opens and provide a stunning floral display. Flowering tea taste like floral green tea and are very beautiful to watch it. After drinking the blooming tea, you can use it as natural plant in your fish tank or use it for decoration of a jar with full of water. You can keep it for few weeks.
