Summer
High Antioxidant Fruit
Tea Recipe
Premium
juices such as pomegranate and blueberry are great, but can be
pricey. Mixing premium juices at 10-20% in tea is a great way
to extend value, maintain health benefits and tastes just as
refreshing.
The best tea to use for high antioxidant
would be white tea and/or honey bush tea. Honey bush is very
close to Roobois and much higher in antioxidants than green
tea. Serve on ice with fresh fruit. We now carry
Fruit Tea's which are just
fabulous, offering great portability and convenience.
Green Tea Ice Cream Recipe
Green Tea ice cream is so cool. If you
already make your own ice cream, just add in green tea powder,
at 4 tablespoons per half gallon, (1/4 kilo) when using an ice
cream maker. Skip the sugar and add a touch of Stevia (to
taste.)

known as Matcha.
Cheater's Method
Buy 1/2 gallon (1/4 k) vanilla ice cream of
choice. Allow to thaw enough to mix in 4 tablespoons of green
tea powder thoroughly and refreeze. Serve with toasted
almonds, and/or almond cookies.
Green Tea White Chocolate Truffles
We simply melt white chocolate and add in
1/3 part green tea powder. Scoop with a melon baller and roll
in more dried green tea powder for a beautiful coat.
Refrigerate to set. |

Harry's Famous Hot Chai Recipe
This is just as delicious served on ice or
hot. When we think of "Chai" we think of a Christmas type
drink and Four "C's." Cardamom, Cinnamon, Coriander and
Clove. The complimentary notes are nutmeg, honey and
vanilla. For the best Chai, we find Himalayan Black Tea to
have the most depth and richness. The truth is, you can
substitute most any tea. Chai is 1/2 your tea formula and
1/2 milk. You can serve this hot or on ice. Because
of this, we make the tea formula ahead of time as a type of
concentrate. Doing that, it can be ready for entertaining in
a snap. We put our Chai spices in a pepper mill to garnish a
cup of Chai, grinding them fresh as well as a compliment to
other meals. High in Cardamom and Nutmeg, this even comes
in handy at night to warm a cup of milk and help sleep. We
recommend our
Fortune Cookie, a rich
Himalayan Black Tea blend for fantastic Chai making.
Culpepper's Winter Tea Recipe
This is a like a good mulled and spiced
wine. Like Chai, it can be served hot or cold.
Basically a tapestry of White Tea, Rooibos
and/or Honey Bush, 10% pomegranate juice, cinnamon, nutmeg to
taste. Serve with Cinnamon sticks and/or crystallized
ginger. Because we prefer performance based herbals, we
typically try to make them a focal point. For this we would
recommend our
Rooibos Love Story. |
