Jeena's Fresh Spiced Tea Recipe

Here is a recipe for those cold winter nights, it is a real tummy settler! The flavours in a my fresh spiced tea recipe are wonderful and warming with a tingle of heat from the cinnamon and ginger, just perfect!

It only takes a few minutes to prepare this lovely fresh spiced tea drink, so why not curl up with some of Jeena's tea and keep warm this winter.




Ingredients

1/2 tsp Cumin Seeds
1 tsp Fennel Seeds
1 Small Green Cardamon Pod
1 Inch Fresh Ginger (diced)
1 tsp Honey (optional)
Small Pinch Broken Cinnamon Sticks
Pinch Fennel Seeds


Getting Started on Jeena's Fresh Spiced Tea Drink Recipe...



Toast your cumin seeds, 1 tsp fennel seeds and cardamon pod in a small pan. Shuffle the seeds in the pan as they toast for a minute or so then take them straight off the heat. Peel the green skin off the cardamon pod and use the little black seeds only, place them into a blender with your fresh ginger and 1/2 cup hot water, grind them up.



Place the tea mix back into the small pan with cinnamon and pinch of fennel seeds, bring to the boil keep boiling for a few minutes.



Add some more water with honey then bring the heat back up again. Pour into a cup through a sieve.

I usually buy bulk tea at a local store. My favorite is the genmaicha green tea. This spiced tea drink looks really lovely though. I'll bet it is very soothing on a sore throat too! I love Ginger.

Jeena this is a recipe I'm definitely going to try. I was introduced to tea masala in October and since then, I can't seem to drink tea without the masala.
