Hazelnut Herbal Tea
It's a perfect, nutty, comforting drink for any time of the day.
Equipment
- 1 Saucepan or kettle
Ingredients
- 2 cups Water
- 1 Hazelnut herbal tea bags or loose leaf hazelnut herbal tea
- honey or sugar to taste optional
- A splash of milk or a milk alternative optional
- A few whole or crushed hazelnuts for garnish
Instructions
- In a kettle or saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil.
- Place the hazelnut herbal tea bags or loose leaf tea in a teapot or directly in mugs. Pour the boiling water over the tea and let it steep for about 5-7 minutes. The longer you steep, the stronger the hazelnut flavor will be.
- Once steeped, remove the tea bags or strain the loose tea. If desired, sweeten with honey or sugar to taste. Add a splash of milk or a milk alternative if you prefer a creamier texture.
- Garnish with a few whole or crushed hazelnuts on top for an enhanced hazelnut experience and visual appeal.
