Lavender Dream Tea by Lluvia Tea

Lavender Dream Tea blends dried lavender buds with green tea leaves. Lavender is a strong aromatic, so the proportion matters: here it sits as a soft floral perfume over a light green tea rather than dominating it. The cup is pale, gently fragrant and best drunk plain.

FAQs

Does it taste like soap?

Not when brewed correctly. Soapiness comes from too much lavender or too long a steep; keep to 2 to 3 minutes below boiling.

Can I mix it with the chamomile blend?

Yes, they sit together well — use half a teaspoon of each per cup.

Is it suitable as an iced tea?

Yes, though brew it slightly weaker; the lavender concentrates as it chills.
