Kim, How long do you steep the blossoms and water before allowing to cool?
Just up til boiling from warm water or for a length of time after it comes
to a boil? Also there are several types of chamomile. I assume you mean
Roman or French as the German isn't a true chamomile from what I understand.
Thanks.
