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
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!
