How to Brew Your Organic Blooming Ritual Tea

One tea ball, boiling water, and five minutes of watching a flower open. Water temperature, timing, and why it is one infusion only.

The point of this tea is that you watch it. Use a glass cup, and don’t walk away.

What it is

Each ball is hand-tied using edible flowers — rose, jasmine, golden chrysanthemum and globe amaranth. It is 100% caffeine-free, which is why it suits the evening.

The taste is delicate, light and floral. Not bitter — subtle, sweet and aromatic.

Before you begin
  • Use a clear glass mug or teapot. In a ceramic cup you get the tea but miss the bloom, and the bloom is half of it.
  • Bring the water to a full boil.
  • Have five minutes. This is not a tea to make on your way out the door.

How to brew it

  1. Place one tea ball in your glass mug or teapot.
  2. Pour boiling water over it.
  3. Watch it bloom for 3 to 5 minutes. The ball opens slowly into a flower.
  4. Sip, and take your time.
One infusion

Each tea ball is made for a single infusion. Once it has opened and you have finished the cup, that ball has given what it has — use a fresh one next time.

When to drink it

It was made for evening rituals. Caffeine-free means you can have a cup late without it costing you the night. It is also the natural finish to any of the massage rituals — something to hold while the oil sits.

Care notes
  • Keep the tea somewhere dry and closed, away from strong smells — dried flowers pick up whatever is next to them.
  • The flowers are edible, but the ball is meant to be steeped, not eaten.
  • If you have a known allergy to any of the flowers listed above, this is not the tea for you.
