Brewing Chamomile Tea: A Step-by-Step Guide

Gather your ingredients: You'll need dried chamomile flowers (the amount depends on your preference, but a common suggestion is two teaspoons per cup, as noted in the provided reference) and hot water.
Heat the water: Bring fresh, filtered water to a boil. Boiling water ensures optimal extraction of the chamomile's flavor and beneficial compounds.
Add the chamomile: Place the desired amount of dried chamomile flowers into a tea infuser, a teapot, or directly into your cup (if using a strainer later).
Steep the tea: Pour the boiling water over the chamomile. Allow it to steep for 5-7 minutes. Steeping for longer may result in a more bitter taste.
Strain (if necessary): If you added the chamomile directly to the cup, use a strainer to remove the flowers before drinking. Otherwise, simply pour the tea from the teapot or infuser.
Enjoy: Your delicious chamomile tea is ready! You can add honey, lemon, or other sweeteners to taste.

Use fresh, high-quality chamomile flowers: The flavor and aroma will be significantly better.
Adjust the steeping time: Experiment to find your preferred strength and taste.
Experiment with different types of chamomile: Roman chamomile and German chamomile offer slightly different flavor profiles.
