Flowering Tea FAQs

Flowering tea (also known as Blooming tea) combines the antioxidant properties of green tea with the calming and digestive benefits of herbal flowers. They may support digestion, reduce stress, improve skin health, and promote relaxation – all while offering a visually stunning tea experience.

Yes, most Flowering teas contain a small amount of caffeine, especially if made with green or white tea. However, it’s generally lower in caffeine than black tea or coffee, making Blooming tea a gentle option for most people.

Simply place one tea ball in a clear teapot or glass mug, pour hot water over it – around 100°C – and watch it bloom! Let it steep for 2–3 minutes before sipping.

You can typically steep a flowering tea ball 2–3 times. The flavour will be more delicate with each infusion, but still enjoyable. Make sure to keep it moist between steeps, or refrigerate in water.

Absolutely! Flowering tea is safe for daily enjoyment and can be a soothing ritual. Just be mindful of the caffeine content if you’re sensitive or drinking it later in the day.
