Simple Herbal Spice Tea Recipe

This easy herbal spice tea recipe is perfect for any season. It is infused with spices and sweetness, making it ideal for those battling a cold or anyone who just wants to relax with a nice cup of tea. Below, I will share how I prepare this simple tea.






Ingredients

 

- 1 sliced orange  

  Be sure to wash the orange before slicing. I used an organic fruit and vegetable wash, but you can make your own if you don't have it.

 

- 1 tablespoon of mulling spice 

  I used the Spice Islands mulling kit.

 

- 1 infuser ball 

 

- 1 tea bag  

  For this recipe, I used one BIGELOW Lemon Ginger Herbal Tea bag.

 

- 1 teaspoon of honey 

  You can adjust the amount based on your preferred level of sweetness.


Preparing Your Tea

 

Start by boiling a cup of water. Once it's hot, add your infuser ball filled with mulling spices and let it steep for about 3 minutes. After that, add your tea bag to the infuser.

 

Allow the tea bag to steep for about 4 minutes to let the flavors meld together. Once the steeping is complete, remove both the tea bag and the infuser ball. Then, add a spoonful of honey and give it a quick stir. Please note that you can use any sweetener you prefer.

 

Next, slice your oranges. Squeeze a little juice into your cup and add two slices for extra flavor.

 

The taste of this tea is amazing! Take a moment to relax and enjoy it.

    Tea is my jam! So much better than coffee. I normally drink black tea with milk (some say it's weird), but I will give this a go!

    This looks delicious. There is something beautifully ritualistic about making and drinking tea. It's almost spiritual.

    I am a big tea drinker, especially when I am working. There is nothing better than a nice hot drink of tea from my favorite cup as I'm settling into my office. I will give this recipe a try too. It sounds super easy and delicious, which is a total win in my book!

    Since moving to England, I've definitely started drinking more tea! I think it has something to do with the damp cold in wintertime. This recipe looks great and not too challenging to make.

DIY Tea Tin Planter for Sweet Mint

Today’s tiny DIY win: turning an empty lemon‑ginger tea tin into a planter for a sweet mint plant that needed some love. I cleaned the tin, added drainage, and nestled the mint inside. It instantly brightened up the space — the colors on the tin and the fresh green leaves look so sweet together. I love giving everyday items a second life, especially when they end up this cute. Quick Video Tutorial  I began this little project by cleaning out an empty metal tea container that I had saved. It still held a soft scent of lemon and ginger, and I loved the idea of giving it a second life. Once I washed and dried it, the container felt ready for a new purpose.   Next, I used a finishing nail and a hammer to create a few drainage holes in the bottom of the tin. Since metal containers don’t have natural drainage, this step helps keep the roots healthy and prevents the soil from becoming soggy. Having prepared the container, I carefully removed the sweet mint from its original pot. The ...
