So make this quick and simple recipe to enjoy the fruits of your labour. Make this recipes your own while getting creative at the Kitchen Table. Try different flavour combinations with different teas! We tried this English Garden Tea from a local independent brand we love - Chai Wallah Margate. It has apple and mint notes and is so good! We have added some gin too as a Sundowner. Pure Bliss.
