Submitted by Chef #893970

"The refreshing mint taste complements the chamomile tea well--and the sugar and cream turn this drink into a real treat."

• Yields: 1 cup
• Serves: 1

ingredients

• 1⁄4 cup camomile tea
• 1⁄8 teaspoon mint extract
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1⁄4 cup heavy cream, whipped
• fresh mint sprig, for garnish

directions

1. Pour the tea into a cup. Stir in the mint extract and the sugar. Top with whipped cream and garnish with a sprig of fresh mint.
2. NOTE: You can also mix fresh or dried chamomile flowers and mint leaves together before brewing--1/2 teaspoon of each works best in 3/4 cup water. Or you can simply add equal amounts of brewed chamomile and mint tea together in the same cup. Then omit the mint extract from the recipe.
