Good day dear mates! Now it's the best time in my region to collect linden flowers to winterize them and of course I use fresh linden flowers to make a tea from them.
First of all near my garden grows this tall linden tree which is more than 30 years old as I know. But even despite its venerable age, this tree annually gives new shoots and lushly blossoms every June, giving us its magical fragrance. This year the linden blossom started a little later than usual, as I assume, because of the bad weather in May. It happened early in the week the day after a heavy rain. So we decided not to waste time and immediately prepare the flowers for winter.
When I had some free time I took a ladder, a basket and went to pick linden flowers. When I picked the flowers, bees and bumblebees circled around me and flew to the intoxicating smell of linden. All in all, it was not possible to collect a large basket of linden flowers. Which I then sent to the balcony to dry.
The same day after picking the linden flowers, I decided to make fresh tea from them.
I prepared water, took out my favorite kettle. After that, I took a handful of fresh flowers and poured the prepared water over them.
And after 10 minutes I got a great golden tea, which we drank with cookies, and enjoyed it with the whole family
If you want to get the maximum amount of useful substances from linden flowers, remember they can not be brewed with boiling water.
So that's all for today. And if you want you can also cook such tea and winterize linden flowers.
Stay tuned! Yours @travoved
