I grow chamomile in the backyard, so have lots. I put about 2/3 cup in a quart of water and made sun tea. Then I put it in a pot, brought it to a boil and dissolved 1.5 c sugar in it. I then strained it, but at the end had a small tea strainer full of sweet chamomile flower head pulp that tasted like heaven. I put it back in the syrup and refrigerated. Family kept tasting it from the jar. Later we re-steeped it for about 10 min and strained - it turned the loveliest gold color.
I made a cocktail using this recipe and now I have leftover. Are there other recipes that use this syrup? Preferably not cocktails.
Check out Melissa Clark's Three-Herb Iced Tea. It's here on the NTY site.
