What is Chamomile Tea?
Chamomile tea is an herbal infusion (or tisane) made from the dried flowers of the chamomile plant. The chamomile plant belongs to the Asteraceae family and is known for its small, daisy-like flowers. Chamomile tea has been consumed for centuries for its potential health benefits and its soothing, calming properties.
Can you add Milk to Chamomile Tea?
Yes! Chamomile tea has a mild, flowery taste and when it meets the creamy goodness of milk, it creates a combination that's perfect for a laid-back quiet moment. Milk brings a smooth, velvety feel to the floral and slightly sweet chamomile, making it a match made in tea heaven. It's like your favorite comfort drink just got a latte-like upgrade!

INGREDIENTS (Serves 2)
2 Chamomile tea bags
2 Cups (16fl oz) freshly boiled water
2 Teaspoons crushed cinnamon
2- Teaspoons honey
Warm milk (dairy or plant based) - to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Boil the water in a kettle or saucepan until it reaches a rolling boil.
2. For best results, use a teapot and warm it first. Pour boiling water into the teapot and swirl for a minute or two before discarding the water.
3. Roughly crush the cinnamon using a pestle or mortar, or by placing a cinnamon stick in a ziplock bag and gently tapping with a rolling pin.
4. Place the cinnamon and tea bags (or loose leaves) into the warmed teapot. Pour boiling water over the leaves, ensuring they are fully submerged. Allow the tea to steep for 5-10 minutes.
5. While the tea is steeping, warm your milk. Optional: Use a milk frother, steamer or whisk the milk to create latte-like bubbles in the warm milk.
6. Strain the brewed chamomile cinnamon infusion equally between two cups or mugs using a tea strainer to separate out the loose herb. Stir in 1-2 teaspoons of honey into each cup.
7. Pour the warm milk over the tea, dividing it equally between the mugs. Give the milk teas a gentle stir and serve hot. Add an optional sprinkle of cinnamon on top.
