Can you make tea out of the lavender plant.?
Lavender is a very special herbal tisane which has calming effects that helps relieve stress, fatigue, headache and insomnia. Drinking a cup of Lavender tea before going to bed is known to promote restful sleep. This tea blends well with mint leaves. Try it.


Taste:


Soothing and highly aromatic tea with a light and slightly sweet taste. Try blending it with mint leaves for that extra refreshing taste.





Rinse tea cup and teapot with hot water. Use about 2 teaspoons dried lavender flowers for every 500ml of water. Infuse in hot water at 90°c (194°F) to 95°c (203°F) for 2 to 4 minutes for the first and second brewing. Gradually increase steeping time and temperature for subsequent brewing.

Reply:You want to use the flowers not the leaves for tea.
Reply:Add a few leaves to a mild blend of tea.
Reply:hi yes you can make a very relaxing soothing tea from lavender, either use the dried flowers and leaves or fresh, either way let it steep in the hot water for a few minutes depending on how strong you like it then enjoy, it also makes an excellent iced tea.
Reply:I would'nt try it because it might not work out the same as tea makers do professionaly.
Reply:Yes, it is possible to make a nice relaxing tea out of lavender. In fact, lavender has been the subject of a number of lively discussions in a gardening forum I'm involved in.
Reply:Any green plant can be used. By pouring hot/boiling water over the 'leaves' you are in fact making TEA or an 'infusion'. It would be preferable to use non-toxic/safe plants, when making your teas. Your library should have many books on the making of teas. Enjoy!!
