Haneli Flower Tea

Haneli Flower Tea, or simply Haneli Tea, was a type of potent red tea brewed from the haneli flower that calmed the nerves. Supreme Chancellor Orlen Mollo drank the tea every day as part of his morning routine, including when he traveled on the Alif-class Longbeam Paxion in 382 BBY. An academy professor on the world Eroudac later worked out how to brew a very potent version of the tea, hiring the student Izal Garsea to smuggle her some of the flowers when drought caused their price to increase.

Prior to the price rise, the Artiodac chef Strono Tuggs always kept a kettle of the tea in his kitchen, and he later collected the flowers for free and brewed the beverage when visiting the flower's homeworld, Haneli, during a culinary tour of the galaxy that he took between 34 ABY and 35 ABY. He then included a recipe for the tea in The Ultimate Cookbook.
