What Is Chamomile Tea?

Chamomile tea is made from the dried flowers of the chamomile plant, a small, daisy-like herb with white petals and a yellow center. Most chamomile tea comes from German chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla). The name comes from the Greek for "ground apple," a nod to the fresh, apple-like scent of the flowers.

People have brewed chamomile for thousands of years, from ancient Egypt and Greece to European and American kitchens today. It is not made from the tea plant, so it contains no caffeine, which is why it has long been a favorite evening cup. For more, read our full guide to chamomile tea.

Meet Our Chamomile

Open the bag and you get the sweet, hay-and-apple scent of dried chamomile flowers. Steeped, it brews a clear golden-yellow cup. The flavor is soft and floral, with warm apple and honey undertones and a gently earthy base. It is mellow and smooth, with no bitterness, and good plain or with a little honey. Packed to order in a 1 oz size.

How To Brew Chamomile Tea

Hot: use 1 to 2 teaspoons per 8 oz of water just below boiling. Cover the cup and steep 5 to 7 minutes, then strain. Chamomile is forgiving, so a longer steep simply gives a fuller, more honeyed cup.

With honey or lemon: a spoonful of honey brings out the apple notes; a slice of lemon brightens it.

Iced: brew it double-strength, let it cool, and pour over ice, or cold brew 2 tablespoons in 32 oz of cold water in the fridge for 8 to 12 hours.

Blend it: chamomile pairs well with a pinch of our lavender buds, lemon balm or peppermint leaf.

Is Chamomile Tea Caffeine-Free?

Yes. Chamomile is an herbal tea made from flowers, not from the tea plant, so it is naturally caffeine-free. That makes it a classic choice for the evening and for anyone avoiding caffeine. For more caffeine-free cups, browse our calming evening teas and herbal teas.
