Ekgaon Lotus Flower Tea (50g)

This is a herbal tea made from the leaves and flowers of the lotus plant, called kamal in Hindi and thamarai in Tamil. The dried lotus parts are ground into a tea powder that brews into a light, floral and soothing drink, made without tea leaves. To prepare, add half a spoon of the tea powder to a mug of boiled water, let it simmer for 4 to 5 minutes and strain. It is usually enjoyed plain without sugar, but you can add a little honey or date palm sugar if you like. Many people enjoy it as a relaxing drink in the evening. Anyone with a medical condition, who is pregnant or who takes regular medication should check with a doctor before drinking herbal teas regularly. This lotus flower tea is packed and sold by Ekgaon from Madurai. Store the powder in an airtight container away from moisture. Available in a 50 g pack.
