Chrysanthemum Flower Tea 500g – Delicate Floral Aroma, Honey-Like Notes & a Refreshing Finish

Light, fragrant and beautifully simple, Chrysanthemum Flower Tea brings the gentle character of dried blossoms to your cup. As the flowers steep, their petals soften and open, releasing a pale golden infusion with a delicate floral aroma and a clean, refreshing finish.

The flavor is mellow and subtly sweet, with honey-like notes balanced by a gentle herbal character. A light earthy undertone adds depth, while a faint bitterness can emerge with longer steeping. The result is an aromatic infusion that feels fresh and easy to drink, whether served warm or chilled.

Unlike teas made from the leaves of the tea plant, chrysanthemum flowers are naturally caffeine-free. Enjoy a cup during an afternoon pause or as part of your evening routine. Its delicate flavor is pleasant on its own, and you can adjust the strength to suit your taste by changing the amount of flowers or the steeping time.

For a simple variation, add a little honey or rock sugar after brewing. Chrysanthemum also pairs well with goji berries, making a colorful infusion with an extra touch of sweetness. To appreciate the flowers’ own aroma, try your first cup without any additions.

Brewing in a glass teapot lets you watch the blossoms gradually open and the water take on its golden color. It is an easy, attractive way to prepare a pot for yourself or share it with guests.

How to Brew

Use approximately 2–3 g of dried flowers per 250 ml of water at 90–95°C. Steep for 3–5 minutes, then strain and enjoy. For a lighter cup, use fewer flowers or a shorter steeping time; for a fuller herbal flavor, increase the amount slightly.

The flowers can be steeped again while they still retain flavor. Extend the brewing time for the next infusion as needed. For iced chrysanthemum tea, prepare a slightly stronger infusion, remove the flowers, allow it to cool and serve over ice.

How to Store

Store the flowers in an airtight container in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight, moisture and strong odors. Handle gently to preserve the petals, and reseal the packaging after each use to help maintain their delicate aroma.
