Detailed step -by -step recipe with photo: Step 1
-
Prepare the ingredients: berry, sugar, rosemary. Currants can be taken fresh or frozen, this will not affect the taste and result. Frozen berries need to be thawed for 1-2 hours to easily grind.
Fresh rosemary should be green, without brown needles. If there are such, they need to be removed. You can replace rosemary with thyme — grass will give a different shade of taste and aroma, more reminiscent of spicy tea.
If neither rosemary nor thyme was at hand, you can supplement tea with slightly simpler herbs — purple basil or mint. In the first case, the taste is specific, very for an amateur, but also very interesting. But mint makes tea neutral, refreshing.
Tip: you can replace brown sugar with ordinary white or use alternative sweeteners. For example, Jerusalem artichoke syrup — add 1/3 less than sugar. Sugar -substitutes in powder and tablets are also suitable: eryritic, stevia, Fitparade.
