I'm not really a big tea fan but I saw this recipe & just had to try it. I love the blend of spices with the cocoa, it's really great. I used vanilla tea with mine so mine was more like a chocolate vanilla chai, I suppose you could experiment with things like caramel or even toffee tea too. Recipe is from SFI. Ingredients:
3 teaspoons loose-leaf black tea |
8 cardamom pods |
2 whole cloves |
1 cinnamon stick |
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice |
2 teaspoons cocoa powder |
4 teaspoons demerara sugar |
1/2 cup milk |
Directions:
1. Combine tea, cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, allspice, cocoa powder, sugar and 1 1/2 cups of cold water in a saucepan.
2. Bring to the boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, stirring, for 5 minutes or until aromatic.
3. Add milk. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until hot. Strain into 2 heatproof glasses or cups. Serve.
