Organic Tea – Floral Tea Bouquet

 

Dear Earth’s Enrichers

Organic Tea - Floral Tea BouquetOn Valentine’s Day a bouquet of flowers is another nice gift to give to your loved ones, but did you know that some of those very same lovely flowers can come in a delicious, floral variety of teas? If you want to try something new and innovative this year, especially if your loved one fancies teas, we think a floral tea bouquet would make a perfect way to say “I love you.”  This way you incorporate something into your gift that not only stimulates his or her senses, but also provides a healthy alternative to sugar filled treats.

There are many kinds of floral teas from lavender to rose bud. They provide assistance with many aspects of health including but not limited to aromatherapy. Imagine sitting in your favorite chair, surrounded by warmth, after a long day of work with a fresh batch of your favorite tea brewing.

The aroma wafting around you as it brews, and you indulging yourself in its welcoming fragrance. As you inhale, the long day is pushed aside and all troubling thoughts seem to evaporate. All of this and you haven’t even taken a sip yet.

Floral tea has a wonderful scent when brewed and some kinds have been recommended for stress relief like lavender, chamomile, and white chrysanthemum. Others are known for their empowering and robust fragrances like rose or rosehip.

Some floral teas have been prescribed by TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) practitioners.  For example, chrysanthemum tea is recommended as a natural coolant. It has also been used to help with sore throats, and some respiratory problems. It’s also naturally caffeine free.

In some instances, floral teas can be categorized as herbal teas. They also have a tendency to be mixed with other teas like green, oolong, or black. Also, as we always say, know your body. If you are allergic to pollen or a certain type of flower don’t try them or ask your doctor is it is okay to drink.
