Preparation

1 Cinnamon stick
5 Cloves
4 Cardamom pod
1 tsp Ginger

Start by gently crushing the cinnamon stick, cloves, and cardamom pods in a mortar. This will release their full flavours into the tea.

3 tsp Black tea
1 slice dried apple
1 piece dried orange peel
1 pinch Vanilla powder

In a bowl, mix the crushed spices with the tea, dried apple, and orange peel. Add the vanilla powder and combine everything thoroughly.

250 ml Water

Place 2 teaspoons of the mixture into an infuser, pour over 250 ml of boiling water, and let it steep for 5–7 minutes, depending on your taste preference.

Pour the brewed tea into a cup. Add a touch of honey or sugar if desired. For a calorie-free sweetener, try stevia. Sit back and enjoy your homemade Christmas tea – ideal for warming up on chilly winter days!

Tips and Variations

For a fruitier note, consider adding dried cranberries or raisins. Feel free to experiment to match your personal taste!
To create a non-alcoholic punch, simply mix your finished Christmas tea with a splash of apple juice.
