Product Description
Snow Chrysanthemum flowers are extremely beneficial for supporting normal healthy blood pressure, blood sugar levels, and blood lipid levels.
Snow Chrysanthemum grows in the extremely remote and towering mountains of Central Asia, known as Kunlun Mountain.
It is cleansing, protective and cooling. Ron Teeguarden uses it every day in his herbal elixirs.
Flavor: Warm flavor bordering savory. Reminiscent of pickling spices (dill, fennel). Bright clarity at top of flavor profile.
Directions:Add the amount of botanicals per a recipe, as desired, or as directed by a health practitioner. The proper way of extracting botanicals depends on parts used. Flowers, fruits and leaves can usually be steeped or decocted (boiling over fire) while stems, barks and roots typically require decocting.
In a Desktop Botanical Garden™ Glass Tea & Elixir Maker, add 1 part botanical(s) and 5-8 parts water, steep or decoct for 5-20 minutes. You can boil water directly in the Elixir Maker. Repeat this process for 2nd or 3rd extraction until all active constituents have been extracted.
The popular iced tea lemonade recipe Half and Half is 50% black tea and 50% lemonade. It is a combination popularized by iconic golfer Arnold Palmer and is still sold under his trademark.
Typical lemonade contains a lot of sugar. Our healthier interpretation is cleansing, cooling, protective and tastes amazingly refreshing.
Snow Chrysanthemum flower buds are extremely beneficial for supporting healthy blood pressure, blood sugar level, and blood lipid level.
Heat 16 oz. water to near boil then remove from heat source
Add 1 tbsp Dragon Herbs Snow Chrysanthemum and let steep for 5 minutes

Optional Garnish: lemon wheel, mint sprig
Alteration: You can also replace 50% of the Snow Chrysanthemum with 1/2 to 1 tbsp of Pu Erh tea for a caffeinated version while retaining the functionality of the drink.
Optional Boost: add 1 Tsp. Green eeTee powder for extra energy and metabolic boost
Interesting factoid: Arnold Palmer loved Ron's Ginseng Sublime Drops

Usage
The lid is made of high quality bamboo wood, with BPA-free silicone ring seal. Remove the lid before heating in the microwave or steamer. You may cover the glassware with a paper towel (for microwave) to prevent splatters.
Avoid sudden drastic temperature changes.
Do not subject the glassware to direct heat sources such as on the stovetop, under the broiler, or on a grill.
Do not heat empty or almost empty glassware in the microwave.
Do not let hot glassware get in contact with wet or cool surfaces, or cold glassware with hot surfaces. Place it on a dry cloth, a potholder, a wooden stand, or a cooling rack.
Allow the glassware to come to room temperature before placing it in the microwave, refrigerator, freezer or water.
Do not use browning wrappers or bags that concentrate heat in certain areas in the microwave. This can cause uneven heating and possibly breakage.
When placing the glassware in the freezer, if it contains liquid, leave some room for the liquid to expand during freezing.
Care and Cleaning
Handle with care to avoid chipping, cracking or severe scratching.
DO NOT drop or hit the glassware against a hard surface or object. DO NOT strike it with a hard utensil.
For tough stains, soak the glassware in warm soapy water for a while, then scrub it using non-abrasive scouring pads such as plastic or nylon.
The glassware is dishwasher safe with the lid removed. Please handwash the lid.
