Tart Rose And Ginger Tea Recipes

STEM GINGER & TREACLE TART

Steps:

• Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface until big enough to line a 23cm fluted tart case, about 3cm deep. Line the tin with the pastry and fold the overhang over the sides. Chill for 30 mins.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Line the tart with greaseproof paper and baking beans. Bake blind for 20 mins. Remove the beans and paper and bake for 10 mins more until the pastry is pale golden and sandy.
• Meanwhile, mix the golden syrup, breadcrumbs, lemon zest and juice, ground ginger and eggs together. Once the pastry is ready, lower the oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Using a small serrated knife, carefully trim the edges, then tip in the treacle mixture and bake for 55 mins-1 hr until the filling is golden and crisp, and feels set to the touch.
• When the tart comes out of the oven, arrange the ginger slices over the top. Drizzle with some syrup from the ginger jar, then lift from the tin to a serving plate and serve warm with vanilla ice cream or custard.

GINGER HIBISCUS TEA

Steps:

• Put the dried hibiscus flowers and ginger, into a measuring cup or pot big enough to hold 8 cups. Cover with the boiling water, and steep for 5 minutes or until you have the desired strength. The longer you leave it to steep, the stronger and more intense the flavor will be.
• Strain the tea into a jug or carafe through a fine sieve. It will be a gorgeous dark red. Stir in the agave or honey to taste. Serve hot or poured over ice.

HONEY-LEMON GINGER TEA

Steps:

• Stir water, brown sugar, and grated ginger root together in a saucepan; bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook at a simmer for 20 minutes.
• Remove saucepan from heat and add tea bags; steep tea to desired strength, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove and discard tea bags.
• Stir lemon juice and honey into the tea; strain into a pitcher.

GINGER TEA

Steps:

• Bring 8 cups water and 1 cup thinly sliced unpeeled ginger to a simmer in a saucepan; simmer until reduced to 5 cups, about 25 minutes. Sweeten with 1/4 cup honey and divide among mugs (strain, if desired). Dust with cinnamon.

TART ROSE AND GINGER TEA

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a small saucepan; remove from heat. Combine ginger and rose petals in a tea ball and steep in hot water for 6 minutes.
• Pour lemon juice into a cup. Stir in honey and tart cherry juice. Pour ginger-rose tea on top.

TONICS AND TEAS FROM MY PANTRY

Steps:

• Place the lemon slices, ginger, cloves, and turmeric in a large measuring cup or teapot and pour on the boiling water. Stir in the honey, cover and let steep for 30 minutes. Strain and reheat if desired but do not boil. Just before serving add a tiny pinch of cayenne.
