Prepare to be enchanted by our Natural Avocado Leaf Spiced Apple Tea Delight, a soothing blend of flavors that will chase away the chill and leave you craving more.
Ingredients for a Heartwarming Brew:
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 4 cups apple juice
- 2 cups water
- 4-inch stick of cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon whole cardamom pods, crushed
- 1 teaspoon whole cloves
- 3 Natural Avocado Leaf Tea Sachets
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- Thin apple slices (optional, for garnish)
Brewing the Magic:
1. A Touch of Citrus Elegance: Begin by using a vegetable peeler to delicately remove strips of zest from half of the lemon. Set this fragrant lemon peel aside for later. Squeeze out the juice from the lemon, reserving some for this brew and saving the rest for another culinary adventure.
2. The Spice Bag Symphony: In a large saucepan, combine the apple juice, water, and 1 tablespoon of the freshly squeezed lemon juice. But here's where the magic happens. Create a spice bag by placing the cinnamon stick, crushed cardamom, cloves, and those fragrant lemon peel strips in the center of a 6-inch square of double-thick 100-percent cotton cheesecloth. Bring the corners together and tie it securely with a clean string. Add this aromatic spice bag to the apple juice mixture.
3. Infusion and Aromas: Bring this delightful mixture to a gentle boil and then reduce the heat. Cover and let it simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the spices to infuse their rich flavors. The kitchen will soon be filled with the warm, inviting aromas of cinnamon, cardamom, and cloves.
4. Tea Time Elegance: After the simmering, remove the saucepan from heat. It's time to introduce the tea bags into the brew. Cover the saucepan again and let the tea bags steep for 5 minutes, imparting their robust essence into the liquid. Once they've worked their magic, remove both the tea bags and the aromatic spice bag, and gently bid them farewell.
5. Sweet Maple Symphony: The final touch of sweetness comes from maple syrup. Stir in 1/4 cup of maple syrup to complement the spices and apple juice. The result is a harmonious blend of flavors that is both comforting and indulgent.
6. Presentation and Garnish: Serve this exquisite tea in mugs, and if you desire an extra touch of elegance, float thin apple slices on top of each serving. It not only adds visual appeal but also a hint of crispness to the warm, spiced brew.
