Soothing Chamomile Latte: Your New Favorite Comfort Drink

This quick and easy recipe will have you sipping blissfully in no time. Whether you’re winding down after a long day or looking for a cozy weekend treat, this honey-sweetened chamomile latte is pure comfort. Let’s get brewing!

What You’ll Need

• 1 chamomile tea bag
• 1 cup (240ml) hot water
• 1 cup (240ml) milk of your choice (we’re using dairy milk here)
• 1-2 tablespoons honey, to taste
• Optional: Cinnamon stick or ground cinnamon for garnish

Let’s Make Magic! ✨

For a Warm, Soothing Drink:

1. Steep the chamomile tea bag in hot water for 5 minutes. Remove the tea bag and set aside.
2. While the tea is steeping, warm the milk in a small saucepan over medium heat. Don’t let it boil!
3. Once the milk is warm, use a frother or whisk to create a lovely foam. (No frother? No problem! Just whisk vigorously – it’s a mini arm workout!)
4. Pour the brewed chamomile tea into your favorite mug.
5. Stir in the honey until it’s fully dissolved. Our taste buds do a happy dance with 1½ tablespoons, but you do you!
6. Gently pour the warm, frothy milk over the tea.
7. If you’re feeling fancy, sprinkle some cinnamon on top or add a cinnamon stick for stirring.

Craving a Refreshing Iced Version?

1. Follow steps 1-5 above, but use only ½ cup of hot water for a more concentrated tea.
2. Allow the sweetened tea to cool to room temperature.
3. Fill a tall glass with ice cubes.
4. Pour the cooled tea over the ice.
5. Top with cold milk and stir gently.
6. For an extra touch of indulgence, add a dollop of whipped cream on top. (Shhh, we won’t tell anyone!)

Pro Tips

• For an extra luxurious latte, use half milk and half heavy cream. It’s like wrapping yourself in a velvet blanket!
• Make a big batch of chamomile tea and keep it in the fridge for quick iced lattes all week long.
• Experiment with different honey varieties. Lavender honey adds a lovely floral note that pairs beautifully with chamomile.

Remember, the best part about this recipe is its flexibility. Feel free to adjust the sweetness, milk ratio, or even add a splash of vanilla extract for a personalized touch. After all, the kitchen is your playground!

So, whether you’re curling up with a good book or need a moment of calm in your busy day, this chamomile latte has got your back. Happy sipping, friends! 🍯🌼
