Iced chrysanthemum tea is one of the most popular drinks in Singapore, Malaysia
and Thailand, available in markets and restaurants. It is made by steeping
chrysanthemum flowers in boiling water and sweetening with sugar.
Chrysanthemum tea is said to be good for the heart and eyes, curing headaches
and calming the mind. Serve either hot or ice.

2 cups of water
1/2 cup sugar (or other sweetener) or to taste
Directions:
1.Rinse dried chrysanthemum under running water and drain.
2.Bring dried chrysanthemum and water to a rolling boil for 20 to 30 minutes.
3.Add the sugar towards the end of the boiling time. Stir to dissolve. Remove
from heat.
4.Pour the boiled chrysanthemum juice through a filter. Discard the
chrysanthemum.
5.Allow the juice to cool. Refrigerate and serve over ice.

We Ate This,
I cannot say I have, but I will have to look in to it.

chrysanthemum?! You mean the flower itself? Oh I never thought that it could be a good source for tea! Good! meaning after having it on vase we could still make used of it after it dried. Thanks for the info

Wyne,
Yes, you can eat the flowers. Here’s a link with a little bit about them. Do a google and you will find some recipe with it.
I love tea but have not tried this one.
Thanks for sharing

I was just at a local tearoom for lunch and we had chrysanthemum tea. I enjoyed it but never thought of making it at home. This looks pretty easy, so maybe I will give it a shot.
