Chrysanthemum Tea
Four weeks ago, I discovered a really healthy tea! I already drink Green Tea and so when I found Chrysanthemum Tea, I was a little hesitant to try it but the lady in the store assured me that it will help with health and so I decided to purchase it. I followed the instructions on brewing it well and then slowly drank it. At first, I wasn't accustomed to the smell or taste of it so I held it in and just drank it, but as time went on, I got used to it. I am quite fond of the taste of the tea. And I might say, this is indeed good for the body. I can feel it refresh my body as it goes down my throat! So I made it my mission to at least drink it once a day, but now I think I might be running low on stock. I felt it refresh my brain as well and make me more awake/aware. I think this is my caffeine fix! I don't drink coffee and I stopped drinking any carbonated drinks for more than a year and substituted it with tea or juice :)
I was surfing through the net and I ended up finding some information on this tea. I found 10 health benefits for drinking this. I got them from be-well-buzz.com so all credit goes to that website. I shall list them now.

antiviral properties and helps relieve congestion in the head which may
