Can roses and chrysanthemums be brewed into tea together

Roses and chrysanthemums can generally be brewed together for tea, and their combination has the effects of soothing the liver, relieving depression, clearing heat, and improving vision. Roses have a warm nature, while chrysanthemums have a cold nature. When combined, they can neutralize the cold and hot properties, making them suitable for people with emotional anxiety or excessive eye use. Rose contains volatile oils and flavonoids, which can regulate endocrine function and alleviate menstrual discomfort; Chrysanthemums are rich in chrysanthemum glycosides and vitamin A, which can alleviate visual fatigue and reduce liver fire. The combination of the two can enhance antioxidant effects and improve problems such as dry skin and dry eyes. When brewing, it is recommended to control the water temperature at 80-90 degrees Celsius to avoid high temperatures damaging the active ingredients. Take 3-5 dried roses and 2-3 chrysanthemums each time, and brew with 500 milliliters of water for 5 minutes. People with weak and cold constitution can reduce the amount of chrysanthemum and add a small amount of wolfberry to balance its medicinal properties. Pregnant women, women during menstruation, and those with spleen and stomach deficiency and cold should use this tea drink with caution to avoid exacerbating body cold symptoms. If diarrhea or stomach discomfort occurs after drinking, stop immediately. It is recommended to drink no more than 3 times a week, and for long-term consumption, consult a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner to adjust the compatibility ratio.
