Homemade That Tea Mix Ingredients
– Black tea: I prefer to use Ceylon black tea for this recipe. You can find it at most health food stores or online.
– Cardamom: Cardamom adds a unique flavor to this tea mix. If you can’t find it, you may substitute with another spice like cloves or cinnamon.
– Anise: Star anise adds a licorice flavor to the tea mix. You may skip this ingredient or substitute with a different spice if you prefer.
– Cloves: Cloves add a spicy flavor to the tea mix.
– Cinnamon stick: Cinnamon sticks adds a warm flavor to the tea mix. You can either add a whole stick to the mix or grind it up and add some of the ground spice.
– Sugar: This recipe calls for sugar, but you can customize it to your own taste by adding a different keto sweetener like monk fruit or erythritol.
– Half and half: I like to add a bit of half and half to my tea for a creamy flavor. You can also use coconut milk, or cream.
