Cinnamon Rose Tea + Honey & Milk


Herbal teas are a penchant of mine and this winter I’ve been drinking a lot of this Cinnamon Rose tea, always with a splash of coconut milk and honey! It’s comforting and warming and I especially like a cup at night after the kids have gone to bed. I’ve used ground cinnamon in this recipe as it is easier to use for single servings, but go ahead and use cinnamon sticks, if you like. Especially if you are brewing up a large batch. If you do use the ground cinnamon, you may find it beneficial to strain the tea through a nut milk bag or cloth before drinking to keep the finer granules out.




CINNAMON ROSE TEA + HONEY & MILK
Serves: one 8 ounce serving


INGREDIENTS
¼ teaspoon(heaping) Ground Cinnamon
1 Cardamom Pod, crushe
⅛ teaspoon Vanilla Bean Powder
½ teaspoon Dried Rose Petals, crushed
¼ teaspoon Dried Chamomile Flowers
8 ounces water, heated to steaming
1 teaspoon Raw Honey
2 tablespoons desired Milk(I like a mix of Coconut & Almond)

INSTRUCTIONS
  • Place the cinnamon, cardamom, vanilla powder, rose petals, and chamomile in a reusable tea bag or ball. Place in a mug and pour the steaming water over the top the herbs. Cover top of mug with a plate so that the volatile oils in the herbs do not escape through the steam.
  • Let steep 10 minutes. Remove tea bag or ball.
  • Stir raw honey into the tea until dissolved. Add milk and enjoy!

Orange Brown Sugar Sweet Tea

#1: Grab the vegetable peeler and an orange and let’s get started.  Hold the orange firmly in one hand and, with the other hand, cut away the orange peel (the very outer, orange skin of the orange).  If you get a little of the white peel, the pith (remind anyone of Ethel Thayer?) it isn’t a big deal. #2: “Muddling”.  All it means, in this instance, is to mash an orange slice into the tea.  Right before serving the tea, place one half of an orange slice in the bottom of each glass and muddle, or mash, the orange to release the juice and oils.  Since I don’t own a muddler, I use the rounded end of my wooden spoon.  Muddle with slight force; just a couple of pushes and twists should be enough.
