Description

Lavender For Tea: Use 1 to 2 grams per 6oz of water. Steep for 4 to 5 minutes or longer for a stronger brew. Do not add herbs if water is boiling. Around 180° F will allow the leaves to expand and provide a great tasting tea. Boiling water can leave the tea bitter tasting. 2oz is approximately 56 grams. One bag should make approximately 28 to 46 cups, depending on preference for taste and strength. Flavor - Sweet and floral with a mildly spicy finish. Excellent with blueberries, cherries, peaches, vanilla and savory herbs like sage and thyme. Grown in the Provence region of France, blue lavender, also known as lavandin, is a hybrid species between English lavender (L. angustifolia) and Portuguese lavender (L. latifolia). The intense color of the flower buds makes this variety desirable for use in crafts when visual presentation counts. Their scent is just as impressive, albeit more medicinal than other lavenders due to the presence of camphor. Very fragrant, bright blue-purple buds. Uses: Cosmetics - Use to make floral water, facial toners, soap, shampoo, lotions, creams, and other personal care products. Decorative - Lavender flowers add color and textural interest to floral displays and potpourri. Culinary - Add to salads, soups, baked goods, TEAS, and other beverages. The flowers can also be used to produce a simple syrup. Household - Add to linen closet and drawer sachets. Aromatic - Use the flowers to make perfumes and infused oils.industrialUse the flowers to make perfumes and infused oils. This information has not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
