Mallow

Mallow flowers come from the common mallow plant, a hardy wildflower found across Europe, North Africa and Asia. The dried blossoms have a very mild, slightly sweet and grassy taste, so they are prized mostly for their beauty and soft texture. They add striking blue and purple color to herbal, fruit and green tea blends, mixing well with rose, lavender and hibiscus. Fun fact: mallow infusion can shift from blue to pink when you add a squeeze of lemon.
