Boil a pot of water, the water temperature is about 85℃ to 90℃, do not use boiling water, so as not to destroy the fragrance of flowers.

Take a teapot or teacup and add some osmanthus. Usually each cup of tea needs about 1 to 2 teaspoons of osmanthus.

Slowly pour in hot water, cover with osmanthus fragrans, then cover and let it soak for about 3 to 5 minutes, or decide the brewing time according to personal taste.

Filter out the flowers and pour Huang Chengcheng osmanthus tea into the teacup.

If necessary, you can add some honey or sugar to taste.
