Tea Bomb Mixture
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger or 1 tsp fresh grated ginger
- 1/4 tsp ground turmeric
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tbsp dried chamomile or dried peppermint tea or your favorite calming herbal blend
- Optional: pinch of black pepper to enhance turmeric absorption
Equipment
- Silicone mold or ice cube tray
- Small saucepan
Instructions
- Warm the Honey: In a small saucepan, gently warm the honey over low heat until it becomes liquid and easy to stir. Remove from heat promptly to avoid overheating.
- Mix Spices and Lemon: Stir in the fresh lemon juice, ground ginger, ground turmeric, and ground cinnamon into the warm honey until fully combined, creating a fragrant and flavorful honey mixture.
- Prepare Tea Molds: Sprinkle a pinch of your chosen dried chamomile or peppermint tea evenly into each cavity of the silicone mold or ice cube tray. If desired, add a pinch of black pepper for better turmeric absorption.
- Fill Molds: Carefully pour the spiced honey mixture over the herbs in each mold cavity, ensuring even coverage.
- Cool to Set: Allow the tea bombs to cool at room temperature until solid, or refrigerate to speed up the solidification process.
- Remove Tea Bombs: Once hardened, gently pop the tea bombs out of the molds and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer until ready to use.
- Serve: To enjoy, drop a tea bomb into a mug and pour hot water over it. Stir well until the bomb fully dissolves, releasing soothing flavors for a comforting drink.
Notes
- Use any calming herbal tea blend of your choice to customize flavor.
- A pinch of black pepper enhances the absorption of turmeric’s active compounds.
- Store tea bombs in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or freeze for longer storage.
- Adjust spices to taste, especially if using fresh versus ground ginger.
- Not recommended for children under 1 year due to honey content.
