Mixing
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and kosher salt.

- Alternately add the flour mixture and the chamomile tea, starting and ending with the flour mixture.
Baking
- Fill each cupcake liner about two-thirds full with the batter.
- Bake for 12-16 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Frosting
- Let cupcakes cool on a rack, then prepare the frosting by beating together softened butter and honey until smooth.
- Gradually add powdered sugar and heavy cream until combined, then beat on high until fluffy.
Decorating
- Use a piping bag to swirl the frosting onto cooled cupcakes. Garnish with chamomile flowers.
