Gingerose tea
I'm a huge fan of spices, in everything from snacks to drinks. One of my favourite beverages is a punchy yet elegant Altmer-style ginger tea infused with delicate rose petals, which is delicious served hot or cold over ice! It's also great for when you're feeling a little under the weather and need a little pick me up.
You will need:
2 large ginger roots, peeled and sliced
1 cup sugar
2 1/2 cups water
5-8 dried rose petals
1 tsp dried hibiscus (rosella) tea
Method:
In a pot, boil the sugar, water, and ginger together for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, add the rose petals and rosella, and stir well. Cover with a lid until room temperature.
Strain the liquid into a jug or teapot and serve iced or warm! If you like, you can make your drink look extra fancy by throwing in a few more rose petals or rosella before serving on ice.
