Of all the teas I’ve made, this is probably the most curious recipe. Our English friends usually prefer milk in their tea, as Americans prefer lemon. Once you taste this English-style tea, you’ll begin to understand why a little milk is so yummy. Now, I keep a tin of Ginger Tea Mix in my cupboard all the time. Ginger is known to quiet an upset tummy, and milk soothes, as well. I’ll change the type of tea I use depending on what I want to try next. You can make this tea with green tea, red tea, white tea, or even your favorite herbal tea. But be careful that you don’t lose the ginger in the other flavors.
It’s wonderful to find budget beverage recipes so you can experiment a little. If you look at fancy teas in the stores, you’ll be hard-pressed to justify trying a tea to see if you like it. It’s hard to spend that kind of money on an experiment! When you’re making your drinks using reasonably priced, whole foods, you can afford to go a bit wild creating a new drink!
