Using fresh lavender buds

  • You can also make the lavender tea by using fresh lavender buds. To do so, boil 8 ounces of water in a saucepan. 
  • Thereafter, put 4 teaspoons of fresh lavender buds into a tea ball or sachet. Pour the hot water in a cup and place the tea ball in it. 
  • Allow it to steep for 10 minutes. Add milk and your most favored sweetener to it and have it warm! Sit back, relax and enjoy this herbal infusion right after your supper.

Notes

  • You can allow the tea to brew for a longer period of time if you prefer it to be stronger.
  • For every 8 ounce cup of water, add a tablespoon of loose tea. 
  • It is recommended to have this tea in moderate quantities as too much of it can cause allergies to some people.
