Instructions:
Pour boiling water over the tea bags in a large mug, making sure to cover the tea bags. Add a small saucer or lid on top of the mug. Let steep for five to 10 minutes and then remove the tea bags.
Warm the milk in a small saucepan for two minutes or until warm or place the milk in the microwave for about 30 seconds.
Add the milk to a heatproof jar or cup and froth with a foamer for about 20–30 seconds. You can also use a blender for 20–30 seconds.
Pour the steamed milk over the tea and garnish with the rose petals on top.
Drink immediately or let cool and pour over ice. You can also place it in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
Brewing the Perfect Cup of Chamomile Tea:
This is an easy process that just might change the way you experience your tea. Using the proper water temperature and steeping the tea for five to 10 minutes will let the flavors develop. You can either drink it straight up or add your favorite sweetener or milk.
Chamomile Brewing Tea Tips
- Bring fresh water to a boil.
- Add tea bags to a mug and pour the boiled water over the tea bags.
- Place a lid or small saucer over the cup to help the flavors develop.
- Steep the tea for five to 10 minutes. (Pro tip: Use a timer.)
- Add your favorite sweetener and steamed milk to flavor the tea.
This is the perfect drink for a hot summer day. If you are in the north east, like me you know these days are numbered, the leaves are already falling! It’s inspired by the Venezuelan drink, Tizana, which is made with chopped fruit and grenadine and can be spiked.
