Hawthorn Blossom Tea
Soft, floral, and quietly good company
Hawthorn blossom is a fleeting thing.
For just a short window each spring, hedgerows soften with pale flowers carrying a light, almond-like scent — a moment that has been marked, gathered, and remembered across European herbal traditions for centuries. Hawthorn (Crataegus monogyna) has long been regarded as a plant of gentleness, steadiness, and emotional balance, associated as much with folklore and seasonal ritual as with herbal practice.
Traditionally, Hawthorn blossom was used in calm, everyday preparations rather than quick fixes. Herbalists valued it for its softening, steadying nature — a plant often described as patient rather than powerful, working gradually and quietly over time. It was commonly taken as a tea during spring and early summer, aligning with renewal, rhythm, and reconnection after winter.
When brewed, Hawthorn blossom makes a light, floral tea with subtle sweetness and a slightly green finish. It’s delicate rather than bold, and rewards slow sipping and simple preparation.
Our Hawthorn blossom tea is gathered in season and dried carefully to preserve its fragrance and gentle character. It’s a tea best suited to unhurried moments — reflective, calming, and quietly restorative in feel.
🌿 Make Your Own Blends
Hawthorn blossom blends beautifully with other gentle herbs, making it a lovely base for personal, intuitive tea blends. Whether you’re blending for flavour, mood, or seasonal rhythm, it pairs best with plants that share its soft, steady temperament.
