Today, I’m thrilled to share my version of this comforting beverage with you, perfect for those chilly evenings when you need a warm hug in a mug.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons dried rosehips
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup milk of your choice (dairy or plant-based)
- 2 tablespoons wild honey (adjust to taste)
- 1 black tea bag (optional, for a caffeine boost)
- Meringues for garnish
Let’s Brew Some Magic!
- Steep the rosehips: In a small saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Add the dried rosehips and let them steep for about 5 minutes. If using a black tea bag, add it now and steep for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Strain and sweeten: Remove from heat and strain the liquid into a mug. Stir in the wild honey while the tea is still hot, allowing it to dissolve completely.
- Add the milk: In the same saucepan, gently heat the milk until it’s warm but not boiling. Pour it into the mug with the rosehip tea and honey mixture.
- Froth it up: For an extra luxurious touch, use a milk frother or whisk to create a creamy foam on top of your tea.
- Serve and enjoy: Carefully pour your rosehip milk tea into your favorite mug. The rich aroma will instantly transport you to a cozy cabin in the woods!
