Lavender green tea is a green tea scented with aroma from lavender buds to make a scented tea. Typically, the resulting flavour of lavender green tea is subtly sweet and highly fragrant. Tea leaves are harvested in the early spring and stored until the late summer when fresh lavender flowers are in bloom. Lavender buds are picked early in the day when the small petals are tightly closed. The buds are kept cool until nightfall and to keep their fragrance in, and this is when the tea scenting takes place.
