A nighttime ritual.
With cold season upon us, we created this nighttime ritual, when we are winding down after a long day and heading to our couch. This herbal tea latte is a simple mix of chamomile tea, steamed milk (we sweetened it with honey) and finished off with the beloved cinnamon. This nighttime tea is the coziest way to treat yourself on a cold night.
The humble chamomile is known around the world for its varied beneficial characteristics: it has important antiseptic properties, relieves stomach ailments, soothes cold symptoms, and calms both the body and mind for restful sleep. Its name is derived from the Greek word meaning “earth apple” because of the characteristic apple aroma that it exudes when it blooms in the spring – thanks to this unique scent, we can often tell that chamomile is around before we even see it.
Ingredients
- organic chamomile tea-bags
- 1 tablespoon organic Thyme honey
- A pinch of ground cinnamon, for serving
- 1/2 cups cold coconut milk, or other non-dairy milk
- 1 1/2 cups water
Instructions
Boil water in a small saucepan. Remove from the heat and add the tea bags. Cover it and steep for 10’. At the same time, heat the milk in another small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk constantly until warm and frothy, about 5’.
Discard the tea bags from the saucepan of tea, add the honey, and stir until dissolved.
Divide your chamomile tea between 2 cups and the divide also the frothed milk between the 2 cups (try reserving a bit of the foam with a spoon if you can)
Stir gently to combine the ingredients.
Last but no lease, top with the reserved foam, sprinkle with ground cinnamon, and serve immediately.
Enjoy!
