Prunus mume has been used as a Korean medicine. It is effective in treating diarrhea and an abdominal pain. This experiment was carried out to optimize extraction conditions of prunus mume flower tea and to analyze volatile compounds. Three kinds of samples treated with fresh, freeze dry, and shade dry, were used, and prunus mum flower tea was manufactured by the mixed ratio of green tea and prunus mume flower. The result was valued by the Hunter's value, flavor and taste. The optimum conditions of extraction time and temperature were 3 min and respectively. Sensory evaluation shows that optimum ratio was adaptive 90% green tea with 10% prunus mume flower. The major volatile compound in prunus mume flower was benzaldehyde.
