Experimentation can make a dramatic impactful statement about how much you value herbal tea as both taste and health benefit. With just a few subtle tweaks, your tea experience could go from relaxing to invigorating in no time! Here are a few ways your can enhance it:
Spices can make any cup of tea better in an easy yet effective manner. From chai to ginger tea, cardamom, cinnamon, and nutmeg bring both flavor and health benefits into every sip of beverage you consume. For maximum freshness use a pestle and mortar to grind up herbs before brewing for optimal oil release which intensifies their flavors further and ensures more intensely-flavorful beverages!
Fruit can add a natural sweet taste without extra added sugar – dried berries make an ideal addition for many herbal tea blends, though other fruit varieties could work just as well.
If fresh fruits aren’t available to you, lemon or lime juice can provide a natural sweetener that complements many herbal teas perfectly. They also pair nicely with teas with earthy and spicy flavors like turmeric or ginger for even greater enjoyment!
Milk can add depth and variety to any cup of tea that seems too mild and bland, helping mellow out its flavors while giving it a traditional, familiar taste and helping counterbalance any bitterness caused by oversteeping specific types.
Cream or milk added to your cup of tea is one of the easiest and most enjoyable ways to enhance its flavor. Most people opt for dairy milk; however, plant-based options such as coconut, almond or soy could provide creamy textures while providing extra protein and other nutrition boosts.
