I enjoy drinking 菊花茶/chrysanthemum tea, but it's not that common around these parts so I wouldn't blame you if you didn't know it was tea. Here's what it looks like in my coffee maker (which is only ever used for tea and ramen...):

chrysanthemum tea in boiling water

When I bought the flowers, they came as a huge pie-slab-thing in a nonresealable plastic bag. To keep the flavor from disappearing, I put it into a jar with a lid:

almonds?

A roommate of mine who shall remain nameless was trying to figure out how almonds could look like that. Then it hit him. They must be inside-out almonds!

I didn't know juhua looked like that. I was expecting more green. That's like the only tea I drank in China. I mean, the only inside-out almond brew I drank in China.

drinking tea containing pearly white flowers is conclusive evidence for homosexuality.
