Linden or linden tea is an infusion made with the flower-shaped fruit of some of the species of the genus tilia (linden trees). It has antispasmodic, sleeping and anxiolytic properties due to its alpha-pinene, limonene, nerol, eugenol and caffeic acid content, along with quercetin and terpineol, although its effects depend on the person who consumes it. The infusion is made by incorporating a tablespoon in boiling water and letting it rest for five minutes and drinking after straining it.
