Honeysuckle tea has a light, floral aroma and a mild taste. Its strength varies with the flowers and brewing time, so a longer steep can make the floral notes more pronounced.
Make honeysuckle tea by steeping flowers sold as safe for drinking in hot water, then straining them out. Follow the package directions, and don’t use flowers picked from a plant you can’t identify.
Pure honeysuckle tea is naturally caffeine-free because it is made from honeysuckle flowers rather than tea leaves. Blends may contain caffeinated ingredients such as black or green tea, so check what is included.
Honeysuckle tea is usually made from the flowers of honeysuckle plants, often Japanese honeysuckle. The name covers many species, and not all are safe to consume, so use tea sold for drinking rather than unidentified plants.
Honeysuckle tea has not been proven to treat or shorten a cold. A warm cup may feel soothing on the throat, but it does not replace established care or treat the infection itself.
There is not enough research to establish that drinking honeysuckle tea every day is safe long term. Follow the product’s directions and avoid regular use if the plant species or ingredients are unclear.
Only use garden honeysuckle flowers if you can identify the species and know they are safe to consume and have not been treated with pesticides. Don’t brew flowers from an unidentified ornamental plant.
No, don’t use unidentified honeysuckle berries to make tea. Many honeysuckle species have berries that are not edible and can be poisonous; tea intended for drinking is generally made from specified flowers.
The safety of honeysuckle tea during pregnancy has not been established, so it is best not to drink it regularly without advice. Ask your doctor or dietitian before using concentrated herbal products.
Pure honeysuckle tea is caffeine-free, so it is less likely to interfere with sleep than caffeinated tea. Its effects on sleep have not been specifically studied, and blends may contain caffeine.

Honeysuckle tea is an herbal infusion made by steeping edible honeysuckle flowers in hot water. Honeysuckle grows in many regions, and flower infusions are familiar in parts of East Asia as well as in herbal-tea traditions elsewhere. It is not made from the berries, which are not interchangeable with the flowers used for tea.
The brew is lightly floral, gentle and sometimes faintly sweet, and is usually served hot on its own. You can also pair it with a little lemon or enjoy it instead of a more strongly flavoured tea. It contributes very little energy—about 1 calorie per 100 g—so it suits those looking for a light, unsweetened drink. Use flowers sold specifically for infusion, rather than picking an unidentified honeysuckle.
Low
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
