What Is Mimenghua (密蒙花)?

Mimenghua, also known as Mi Meng Hua or Buddleja officinalis, is a traditional herbal ingredient used in herbal tea preparations. These dried flower buds and inflorescences are characterised by a mild, slightly sweet flavour with a subtle floral aroma. In traditional practice, they are often steeped alone or blended with other herbs such as chrysanthemum or goji berries. This product offers whole dried flowers, and as a natural product, slight variations in colour and size between batches are normal and to be expected.

How to Brew Mimenghua Tea

To prepare a tea, place 1 to 2 teaspoons of dried Mimenghua flowers in a cup. Pour hot water (approximately 93°C) over the flowers and let steep for 5 to 10 minutes, depending on your preferred strength. You can strain the infusion or leave the flowers settled at the bottom. The resulting tea is light golden with a gentle floral scent. This tea can be enjoyed hot or iced. For a stronger brew, increase the amount of flowers or extend the steeping time. Store any unused portion in an airtight container away from direct sunlight.
