Fresh Peppermint Tea – A Great Way To Soothe Off The Hard Edges Of The Day
Tea has almost as much, if not, more caffeine than coffee.
However, that doesn’t mean that it has to remain a booster drink. In fact, there are many relaxing, calming preparations of tea and one of the best de-stress recipes for tea is peppermint tea.
You can feel the angst melt away as soon as you take a sip:

Yuja Tea – Kick Your Colds Into Touch With This Great Korean Recipe
Koreans just like their East Asian counterparts, the Chinese and Japanese, love their tea.
This wonderful recipe from Maangchi is for yuja tea. It has a really citrusy flavor and I’ve found that it’s a bit more subtle than the more traditional lemon tea.
They use it to treat a cold but it’s a warming concoction at any time of the year.
Do you know of any traditional cold remedies?

I often feel like our vegan friends must feel left out with our recipes but not today! This lemongrass and hibiscus tea with added orange peel is 100% vegan-friendly.
It’s really tasty too. Best of all it’s said to give your immune system a boost which is great for warding off colds and flu:

Matcha Latte – An Authentic Green Tea Recipe That Tastes Superb
Green tea is one of Asia’s most popular foodstuffs but we don’t see that much of it in America.
I think that’s quite possibly because we love our coffee so much. However, it can make for a great change during your day and this matcha green tea latte is a really different drink.
I like to sip one at my desk in the afternoon:
Do you like latte style teas or do you prefer something more traditional?
Turmeric Tea – An Anti-Inflammatory And Fat Burning Recipe
Turmeric is renowned for its anti-inflammatory properties.
I am going to be blunt. This is not the greatest tasting tea in history.
Nisa from Skinny Recipes claims that used as part of a strict diet it can also hope you lose a little weight fast.
Be warned though that this is a short-term plan – don’t rely on this for long-term weight loss:

Karak Chai Tea: A Very Unusual Take On A Cup Of Tea
This recipe from Cooking Ring may be for the most unusual cup of tea that I’ve ever encountered. It uses ginger, cardamom and cloves among its many ingredients to create a taste that’s closer to Arabic coffee than it is to tea. I really enjoyed making this and it’s very much worth a try:

Sometimes, it’s nice to indulge in new and exciting recipes. At others, it’s better to relax with something more familiar and comforting.

Kashmiri Chai Recipe: Pink Tea From Pakistan!
It’s easy to forget that it’s not just China that was instrumental in bringing tea to the world and that India and Pakistan have been major players in the tea trade too.
How To Make Cheese Tea: Yes, Tea With Cheese In It!
This may sound awful but it’s THE big thing in China and Japan at the moment.
This cheese tea isn’t, thankfully, about dumping a ton of cheddar cheese into a cup of tea but it’s rather more delicate than that.
It tastes way better than it sounds and it has a pleasing visual aesthetic too!
