Passion flowers are not only beautiful ornamental plants; their leaves and vines also make a relaxing herbal tea.


Filled with irony, at first glance passion flower sounds like an herb meant to get you off the couch and onto the dance floor. Though zeal, enthusiasm, fervor is implied in its name, passion flower actually couldn’t incite a flea to a grass-rolling cat if it wanted to. Widely known to actually induce whole body, mind and spirit calm, you might wonder, then, how this plant got its name. Naturally, there’s a story here. ...

What’s in a Name? Some Passion Flower History

Even if you are not a practicing Christian, you’re likely familiar with the term the passion of Christ, which referred to Jesus of Nazareth’s last days on earth, specifically his crucifixion. Though in 1569 a Spanish doctor in Peru is said to have discovered passion flower, eventually this remarkable plant found itself in the clutches of Spanish missionaries, who saw in its three stigmas, five stamens, and ten sepals an actual representation of Jesus’ crucifixion. The missionaries used the flower as a model to introduce Christianity to the indigenous people they sought to convert.

What is Passion Flower?

As a plant, passion flower is classified as a perennial climbing vine. Sun-loving, and rather nonplused about pristine soil, this plant is actually one of about 500 species in the Passifloriaceae family. Though it does flower without climbing, passion flower is best served when able to climb up a trellis, or wind itself through fencing. It flowers white and lavender, with a fringed crown, and a leafed stalk. Butterflies and bees love to make passion flower part of their pollen-gathering journey.

What Does Passion Flower Tea Taste Like?

Clear and amberlike in color, what a rich, earthy flavor Buddha Teas Passion Flower Tea reveals! Savory, rather than sweet, the nourishing flavor is reminiscent of a distinct broth, not in any way in need of sweetening. Take in the scent with a slow, deep breath, and you might find your mind transporting you to a cool spring afternoon on a North Carolina farm as you meander through fields of Indian grass.

 

How to Make Buddha Teas Passion Flower Tea

Pour boiling water over your tea bag, and let steep 5-8 minutes. We like to cover the cup while steeping, and drink intentionally, with slow, deep breaths in between sips.
