Goodbye Iced Tea...

Winter is coming and I generally stay away from anything cold. But, it works for me, because I love hot tea - and it can be hard to drink a nice cup of hot tea in the humid summer. So as we get into winter, I wanted to share one of my favorite recipes for a Masala tea. If you are not sure where to get spices, I'm including a link to Nirmala's Kitchen - it is a good place to start.

I think you'll enjoy this. Happy Winter!

To boiling water add:

1. Black tea leaves
2. Brown Sugar
3. Black pepper
4. Cloves
5. Ginger
6. Cardamom
7. Cinnamon

Let ingredients sit for about 10 minutes on low boil; strain into cup; and enjoy!
