Honeysuckle Chrysanthemum Green Tea

Why people make this tea

When Hong Kong slides into its warm-weather flu season, Nourilo likes to keep something easy on hand that the whole family can sip. This three-flower tea is about as simple as it gets — you just steep it like any tea. Honeysuckle has long been called the “herbal antibiotic” in traditional kitchens, chrysanthemum is the classic cooling flower for tired eyes, and green tea brings a bright lift. Nourilo still reminds everyone that the elderly and children should get their flu vaccine; this tea is a gentle daily companion, not a substitute.
