CYou will feel relaxed and comfortable with the herbal flower tea... What a good thing it is to enjoy the rare flower tea with a favorite book or a couple of bosom friends!
With the boredom that can come from city living, a person will sometimes look for something a little different to spice up an otherwise dull day.
The usual coffee, tea, wine or coco drinks become passé. I want something fresh, something from nature.
It is spring finally, a friend comes and brings me a gift - a caddy of herbal flower tea. At night, alone, I make a cup of the tea for myself...picking up several tiny flowers and a bit tea, putting them in a glass pot and adding in some boiling water.
After a brief wait, clear golden tea flows from the hand-warming pot. Tender fragrance of the flowers overflows within my throat with every mouthful. Looking at the tiny flowers and leaves floating in the pot, I suddenly have a beautiful feeling.
It is because, I know, that what I have drunk is not only from the flowers and their fragrance but also the sunshine, rain and dew as well as the natural nutritious components in them. With all of them in my body, I feel so warm and comfortable that it seems to me as if the dryness of spring has left me. Just at that moment, I fall in love with the herbal flower tea.
There are more and more reasons for the tea to be loved since every kind of flower or plant included has its own health care function. For instance, the rose can invigorate blood circulation so as to make one look younger, lavender relaxes nerves; chrysanthemum relieves internal heat or fever, to mention some examples.
