Rose and Lotus Leaf Tea

Why people make this tea

Nourilo is fond of flower teas that double as a daily pick-me-up — rose, jasmine, lotus leaf, lotus flower, roselle, bitter orange blossom. In this one he pairs several flowers with lotus leaf, a combination traditionally enjoyed by those watching their weight or managing high blood lipids. Lotus leaf is associated in tradition with clearing summer heat and supporting a lighter feeling; fresh lotus leaf is considered even better, and in summer he likes to cook fresh lotus leaf into congee.
