  • 5 g chrysanthemum tea dried
  • 3 cups of water
  • sugar optional

Instructions

  • Place the dried tea in a tea bag or a tea strainer of your preference.

Notes

  • Since the petals get in the way while drinking, it is best to tie up the tea in a cheesecloth, use a tea-strainer, or make in a teapot with a built-in strainer. 
  • You can add water to the tea for extra batches.
