Baby Smallz Tea

Last New Year's Eve, KC became an auntie for the first time! In preparation for Annabelle Lea's birth, KC created a tea blend for her sister and her family. Now to celebrate Annabelle Lea's first birthday, we're posting the recipe for you! This herbal tea blend has a little bit of sugar and spice and everything nice. First we added a hefty scoop of hibiscus flowers (they're what gives the tea that delicious red color). Then we added cinnamon chips for a hint of spice. Next came the cornflowers and calendula flowers and last, for that touch of sweetness, we added a tiny bit of an all natural sweetener, stevia.



2 c cinnamon chips
2 c dried hibiscus flowers
1 c dried calendula flowers
1 c dried cornflowers
¼ c dried stevia leaf

Mix all ingredients together and store in an airtight container. When ready to use, spoon 1 tablespoon into a tea strainer, put into a large mug and cover with boiling water. Steep for several minutes and enjoy. Delicious hot or iced.
