Homemade lavender dew-healthy sleep aid drink
Overview
The dried lavender flowers I bought have been stored for half a year. I want to think about what to do. Otherwise, it would be a sin to waste such a poetic and picturesque purple! It's very simple to make lavender dew, take it to a dinner party on the weekend and share it with friends, and the house will be filled with a charming aroma. Lavender is native to the Mediterranean coast, various parts of Europe and the Oceania Islands, and was later widely planted in the United Kingdom and Yugoslavia. The flowers are beautiful and elegant in color, with long and beautiful blue-purple inflorescences. Lavender has been a very common herb since Roman times. It is called the queen of vanilla because of its most powerful effects. It has been widely used in medical treatment since ancient times. Both the stems and leaves can be used as medicine. They have the effects of strengthening the stomach, promoting sweating, and relieving pain. It is a good medicine for treating colds, abdominal pain, and eczema. The magical formula of lavender sleep-aid tea has appeared as early as the ancient Greek and Roman times. The strong aroma makes people happy, has no side effects, and has many benefits such as calming, relaxing digestive tract spasms, cooling and refreshing, eliminating flatulence, aiding digestion, preventing nausea and dizziness, alleviating anxiety and nervous migraines, preventing colds, etc. Drinking it can also help recovery when you are hoarse and lose your voice, so it is known as the best companion for office workers. Lavender tea is light green when first brewed, and then gradually turns blue or purple. If you add a few drops of lemon juice to the tea soup, it turns pink, which is very pleasing to the eye. You should pay attention to the dosage during pregnancy and do not drink continuously. [Compiled based on Baidu Encyclopedia]
