Magnolia Tea Smoothie (Sooth Stress)

This magnolia tea is easy to brew, effective at soothing stress and anxiety, and deliciously floral and refreshing served in a stress-reducing smoothie.

Why You'll Love this

Magnolia tea reduces stress. Magnolia flowers make a wonderful tea. They are an ancient flour, appearing on Earth before bees. They have long been used by ancient civilizations for medicinal purposes, primarily for depression and respiratory ailments.

Magnolia petals are edible. Magnolia petals can be eaten whole (be careful the trees weren't sprayed with insecticide or fertilizer) and are known for clearing sinuses and having a rapid effect on soothing anxiety. You should take care however to only make tea off petals found on a tree that is free of fertilizer.

Make Magnolia Petal Tea

1. Gather 2 cups of Magnolia petals off a tree you know was not exposed to fertilizer or insecticide. Hand wash the petals.

2. Boil 3 cups of water in a pot, turn off the stove, and add the 2 cups of the Magnolia petals to the water.

3. Put the pot in the refrigerator covered overnight and let the petals steep further.

4. The next day, strain off the leaves, and store your concentrated tea in the refrigerator.

You can stop there, and enjoy your tea or you can continue on and make a smoothie. Here's how:

Ingredients for Smoothie

Magnolia Petal Tea, homemade

Raspberries

White or black chia seeds

Lemon juice

I also add baobab powder to mine to boost the nutrition, but that's optional. Baobab heightens the vitamin C in the tea and makes it a powerful immunity booster.

How to Make Smoothie

1. Blend all ingredients until smooth.

2. To prepare the smoothies as shown, fill half your smoothie container with yogurt, pour on the Magnolia smoothie, and make swirls by carefully dipping in your spoon and dragging up and around.

3. Enjoy the boost of calm that should come after a first few sips!
