Recipe: Candy Cane Tea-mocha

This recipe uses our top-selling Candy Cane Cream black tea to make a delicious holiday drink. Use cold-steeped milk to extract the tea flavour and blend in indulgent chocolate to create a comforting tea-based peppermint mocha, or Tea-mocha!

Ingredients:

• 4 Pluck Candy Cane Cream Tea Bags
• 500 ml milk of choice
• 15 g preferred chocolate
• Whipped Cream
• Crushed Candy Cane or Chocolate Curls as topping

How to make it:

1) Steep 4 Candy Cane Cream tea bags in 500 ml of your preferred cold milk. Let the tea steep overnight in the fridge. You can also add more tea bags for a bolder flavour. We recommend 2 tea bags or 2 tsp of loose-leaf tea for every cup (250 ml) of milk for cold steeping.

2) The next day, remove and gently squeeze the tea bags to extract all flavours.

3) Stir well and heat 250ml of the milk in a microwave or on a stovetop until warm to the touch. A steam wand or an electric milk frother can also be used to heat the milk. Make sure the milk does not boil, as it can burn and alter the flavour.

4) In a mug, add 15g of your preferred chocolate and pour in the warm milk. Stir well until the chocolate is fully melted.

5) Top off with whipped cream and crushed candy canes or chocolate curls. Stir well and enjoy!
