FOODIE MARTA BLOGT: DIY Tea Blends for Mother's Day
With Mother's Day being just a week away, it’s time to make sure you have the perfect gift to celebrate that extraordinary woman in your life. If your mom is a tea drinker and you’re still looking for a gift idea, you might want to consider making a personalized homemade tea blend!
With just a little time and imagination, you can create that one tea blend your mom will love. When making a personalized blend, think about whether your mom prefers: flowery or fresh flavors, green, white or black tea?
To get you started, below you can find some ideas for my favorite tea blends:
Flowery Berry Tea
40g loose white tea with fruit flavor
3 tbs dried cranberries
3 tbs dries raspberries
3 tbs dried chamomile flowers
3 tbs dried hibiscus flowers
1 tsp vanilla beans powder
Green Lemon Tea
50g loose green tea
5 tsp dried lemon rind
Orange Cinnamon Tea
50g loose Ceylon tea
3 tsp dried orange rind
3 tsp cinnamon
1 crushed cinnamon stick
In a bowl, combine all ingredients. Put tea in a transparent bag or a pretty jar. For preparation, use one teaspoon per cup of water.
