Simply add and leave our favorite spice in infusion or let the appropriately washed flower petals soak. Before doing this, make sure that the plant and the fruits you are going to use are not toxic.
A treat: tea was also used by artists to create a pleasant water-based effect and careful not to stain your habit, as it is rather difficult to remove stains. Be aware that tea, once cooled, cannot be heated or even boiled, as in addition to changing the taste, it would be toxic to the body.
