HOLIDAY RECIPES


HOLIDAY CHAI EGGNOG

4 cups of Eggnog
3 tbsp. of Masala Chai
1/4 cup amber rum (optional)

In saucepan, combine eggnog and tea. Cook for 7-10 minutes but do not boil.
Remove from heat and let stand for 2 minutes.

Strain through fine sieve, and then add rum. Cool to warm, then place in the refrigerator to chill.
Chill for 2 hours and garnish with whipped cream!

SPICE UP THE SCONES

Try adding tea instead of water to our scone mixes. Use the amount of water that the mix calls for, but boil the water and steep two – three teaspoons of your favorite tea, let cool and then add to mix.

Also, try adding dried fruit, chocolate chips or nuts to the Original/Plain Scone mix.

WHITE & GREEN TEA - DID YOU KNOW?

White and green teas are good for 2-3 infusions from the same leaves. Most of the caffeine is released in the first infusion, so this will also reduce caffeine content.

WHITE & GREEN TEAS EASY TO BREW?

Have you always wanted to make green or white tea, but just do not know how? Think it is too complicated? Well, here is a simple and effective way to enjoy the elusive white and green teas.

White and green teas call for specific water temperatures because water that is too hot will cook the leaves causing the tea to taste bitter. You do not need a thermometer to prepare these delicious teas anymore. Here is how:

Boil water and pour into teapot or glass cup and let sit 1-2 minutes for green tea and 2-3 minutes for white tea. Then add tea and brew for the specified amount of time.

This information is also available on our website. Try some of the White Christmas, it is delicious.
