Lilac Flower Tea

Lilac Flower Tea is a floral tea made from Springtime Lilac Blossoms, hot water, and sweetened optionally with Wildflower honey.

Our Lilacs bloom for about 2 weeks in the Spring and I look forward to it every year. I have a little Lilac recipe collection going to preserve the memory of these beautiful flowers, one of my favorite flowers.

WHAT IS LILAC TEA LIKE?

This Lilac Tea is very subtle and you can certainly mix it with other tea flavors. Remember, Lilacs will always smell more amazing than they taste.
