Print Recipe
Equipment
- 1 knife
- 1 kitchen scissors
Ingredients
- 10 Tbsp. rooibos tea (loose leaf tea) (40 gr.)
- 1 vanilla bean
- 5-10 gr. dry fruits like dried apples, raisins or dates (Optional)
Instructions
- Put the rooibos tea in a airtight container
- Cut a vanilla bean open: make a cut in the side and slice it lengthwise so you can open it
- Scrap seeds carefully and add them to the tea leaves
- Cut with a scissor the remaining bean into small pieces and add it to the rooibos blend. Optionally, do the same with the dried fruits.
- Mix thoughtfully and if possible, let sit for a couple of days before using the blend.
Notes
To prepare a cup, use a teaspoon per cup, pour boiling water into it and let steep for 10 minutes before removing tea.
This blend tastes great as rooibos tea latte, with some milk and homemade vanilla honey.
