This particular tea is part of my recently published booklet Growing and Using Lavender in the Midwest. I like this recipe because it has a number of flowers in it and reminds me of Spring and Summer.
Lavender centered with the earthly floral scent and taste of lavender buds, it is complemented by the apple-y brightness of chamomile and the headiness and richness of yarrow. A bit a stevia adds sweetness, but if you do not have it, you can sweeten the final tea with honey.
