Lilac Flower Tea Recipe

Harvest a small bundle of lilacs for 1 cup of tea. I don't measure this, I go by what feels right, but I'd say 2 bundles per cup of tea.

Pluck the buds and place in a bowl.

Rinse with water to remove any bugs or dirt.

Boil water in a kettle.

Place buds in a jar, pour hot water over buds and immerse.

Put a lid over the jar to contain the tea as it steeps.

Steep for 5-10 minutes.

Strain into a cup.

Serve with honey, and enjoy.
