Chamomile Tea
Chamomile Tea Detailed Introduction 🌼🍵
What is chamomile tea? 🌿
Chamomile tea, derived from the flowers of the chamomile plant (Matricaria chamomilla), is a classic caffeine-free herbal tea. Its pale yellow color and refreshing flavor, with a subtle sweet and floral aroma, are said to bring peace and relaxation to the mind. It's a popular choice for Hong Kong residents seeking to relieve stress and improve sleep. Chamomile tea not only has a smooth taste but also boasts a long history of medicinal use, earning it a reputation as a natural soothing aid. 🌸✨
Origin and picking characteristics🏞️
Chamomile flowers are primarily grown in Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa. The flowers are harvested early in the morning, when they open, with intact petals to preserve their aroma and active ingredients. They are then dried at low temperatures to set the shape, preserving a high concentration of active ingredients. Most chamomile teas on the market are packaged in dried form, ensuring a healthy and pollution-free experience.
