I just tried this tea and it was lovely with Earl Grey. Not liking the idea of ground cardamom in tea I switched the recipe to using the full pods and steeped them with my tea leaves. Originally posted for ZWT7, Africa. Modified from, www.congocookbook.com.

MMhh! Enjoyed this tea with milk; trying it hot and chilled. I used black Indian tea and the sugar option.<br/>Cardamon is one of my favorite spices and this combination is something sooo simple but sooo good! Thanks a lot for posting this recipe and let know the people how they can prepare such a great drink!<br/>Done for PRMR.1Reply
