Calendula Flowers Organic - 24 gm

Calendula, commonly known as "marigold," is a native of Europe and was nmaed by the Romans because the plant blooms on the first day "calends" of every month.

Calendula was well known to the old herbalists as a garden-flower and for use in cookery and medicine. According to Stevens, a 17th century European herbalist, calendula petals were once used so extensively in the Netherlands that barrels full of dried petals could be found in many grocer's and spiceseller's shops.

DIRECTIONS

Good water is an essential part of brewing a great cup of tea. We recommend using spring or filtered water.

• Be sure to relax! Some of the most enjoyable aspects of tea are the calmness and ritual that surround it.

• This is a delicate herb and is more potent when exposed to high temperatures for a short period of time. So that your tea has its maximum medicinal properties and flavour, be sure that your water is at a rolling boil when you pour it over your teabags.

• If you desire a medicinal tea, be sure to use one tea bag per cup of boiling water, cover and steep for 7-12 minutes. This is known as the infusion method.

• If you desire a pleasure tea or quick brew, use one teabag per cup of hot water. Pour water over teabags, cover, and let steep 3 to 5 minutes to taste. Enjoy!
