Herbal tea has always been prevalent in the Lebanese culture for its health benefits, with the Yansoun (Anis tea) being a faithful companion of the Lebanese upbringing, and also Mint tea, often consumed after a heavy meal, Camomille tea to favor a good sleep, Zouhourat (tea of mixed dried flowers), and so on.
