Heather Flowers And Leaves Tea Leaf Flower

A common sight in Northern Europe, and synonymous with the bleak beauty of Scotland, heather is far more than just a pretty plant. Both the leaves and flowers of this plant have been staples of herbal traditions for centuries, and can be brewed into an aromatic, floral tea. Heather teas are traditionally used to relax and promote calmness. This makes them a key ingredient in many "bedtime blend" herbal teas. Light, floral and deliciously scented, a heather flower tea will help you empty your mind as your stresses melt away. The aroma of a heather tea will bring to mind some of Europe’s most beautiful areas – especially because this tea has been specially prepared to preserve that delicious scent! 100% natural Brewing notes: use a teaspoon of the dried flowers per cup, pour water just off the boil and steep 5 minutes, then strain; the same flowers hold their colour in potpourri.
