My friend was back in our hometown due to the Pandemic and we were going to have a “social distancing walk” to catch up. Since she lives in a different country, I rarely get to celebrate her birthday (if ever)! Therefore, this was my opportunity to make her something special for her day. However, with limited trips to the grocery store, I utilized what I had and crossed my fingers and toes this would work out! With lots of wishful thinking and good vibes, this “on the whim” recipe turned out delicious!

If you do not have an already mixed blend, feel free to add your own spices. I happened to already have this tea and it was going to expire so I wanted to make sure nothing went to waste.
