Frequently Asked Questions
What is Lebanese Orange Blossom Tisane?
Lebanese Orange Blossom Tisane is a caffeine-free herbal drink from Lebanon composed of hot water, orange blossom water, and honey. It is commonly consumed as a soothing evening beverage or as a traditional digestif after meals.
What exactly is 'white coffee' in this recipe?

Can I use artificial orange blossom extract instead of floral water?
No, you should strictly use food-grade orange blossom water, as extracts are significantly more concentrated and can make the drink taste bitter or soapy.
How much orange blossom water should I add to avoid an overwhelming perfume-like taste?
Stir 2 tbsp of orange blossom water into the 500 ml of warm water; the floral scent should be prominent but not overpowering.
Is it necessary to boil the water with the orange blossom water?
