How to Brew Lavender Tea
To make a mug of lavender tea, follow this easy recipe:

Heat the water. To make a cup of lavender tea, bring eight ounces of filtered water to a boil in a small saucepan or tea kettle.
Add the lavender. Add two tablespoons of dried lavender blossoms to the boiling water, remove from heat, and allow it to steep for eight to ten minutes. The longer the lavender blossoms are left in the water, the stronger the tea will become. You can use either lavender tea bags or loose lavender flowers in a tea infuser.
Remove the lavender and serve. Discard the used lavender blooms and serve the tea into cups or mugs. Lavender tea can be served either hot or cold. Optionally, you can add lemon and honey to lavender tea to mellow its bitter aftertaste.
If you want to serve lavender tea cold, make 4-6 cups of lavender tea, pour them into a pitcher, and chill it in the refrigerator. Lavender can be mixed with butterfly pea flowers and lemon juice to give the tea a beautiful purple color.

Two principal varieties are used, the small-leaved China plant (C. sinensis variety sinensis) and the large-leaved Assam plant (C. sinensis variety assamica). Hybrids of these two varieties are also grown. The leaves may be fermented or left unfermented.

History of the tea trade
According to legend, tea has been known in China since about 2700 BCE. For millennia it was a medicinal beverage obtained by boiling fresh leaves in water, but around the 3rd century CE it became a daily drink, and tea cultivation and processing began. The first published account of methods of planting, processing, and drinking came in 350 CE. Around 800 the first seeds were brought to Japan, where cultivation became established by the 13th century. Chinese from Amoy brought tea cultivation to the island of Formosa (Taiwan) in 1810. Tea cultivation in Java began under the Dutch, who brought seeds from Japan in 1826 and seeds, workers, and implements from China in 1833.
In 1824 tea plants were discovered in the hills along the frontier between Burma and the Indian state of Assam. The British introduced tea culture into India in 1836 and into Ceylon (Sri Lanka) in 1867. At first they used seeds from China, but later seeds from the Assam plant were used.

The Dutch East India Company carried the first consignment of China tea to Europe in 1610. In 1669 the English East India Company brought China tea from ports in Java to the London market. Later, teas grown on British estates in India and Ceylon reached Mincing Lane, the centre of the tea trade in London. By the late 19th and early 20th centuries, tea growing had spread to Russian Georgia, Sumatra, and Iran and extended to non-Asian countries such as Natal, Malawi, Uganda, Kenya, Congo, Tanzania, and Mozambique in Africa, to Argentina, Brazil, and Peru in South America, and to Queensland in Australia.
