What people use it for
The everyday cooling drink in most Singapore Chinese households, brewed on its own or with rock sugar, wolfberries and dried longan. It is also the base of the hawker "chrysanthemum tea" and of the herbal jelly sets sold at Chinese New Year.
How to prepare it
Rinse once, then use 6 to 8 flowers per mug of just-boiled water and steep 3 to 5 minutes. The same flowers take a second and third pour.
Keeping it
Airtight, out of the sun. Flowers pick up moisture faster than leaves.
Questions people ask
Does chrysanthemum tea have caffeine?
No. It is a flower infusion, not a tea leaf, so there is no caffeine in it at all.
How many flowers per cup?
Six to eight heads in a 250 ml mug, steeped 3 to 5 minutes. Add rock sugar at the end rather than the start so you can taste how sweet it has gone.
Can I brew the same flowers twice?
Yes. Chrysanthemum takes two or three pours before the flavour goes flat.
How far does this pack go?
At the quantity in the instructions above, about 50 brews from this pack.
Is the bigger pack cheaper?
This one works out at S$7.33 per 100 g. One Sunny lists most items in more than one size, so compare that figure rather than the pack price.
