Star Anise Cardamom Tea

For an amazing cup of Star Anise Cardamom Tea

All you need is fresh green cardamom, star anise, and something to grind the spices.

If you are in a hurry, use a tea bag for the tea.

I sometimes make a pot of tea, and grind the spices each time someone wants a cup of tea. 

Open and grind a whole green cardamom, and a very tiny bit of star anise

(less than a quarter teaspoon of powder with both spices together )

Remove the tea bag from the hot water, add the powder, add cream and sugar 

(we use half a teaspoon of condensed milk which is already sweet)


Btw, did you know that star anise contains shikimic acid 

which is the main ingredient that pharmaceutical companies use 

in the manufacture of Tamiflu (flu shot)? 

They wouldn't want you to know this.

I'm not suggesting that you will live forever or can avoid the flu with this or any spices, 

but we've never had the flu or the flu shot till date!

Although we are triple vaccinated 💉💉💉

we still use many spices for their taste more than their health benefits, in our cooking. 

For more of my recipes do a search on this blog with the words star anise

 Enjoy your cup of tea!

😊
