Root teas with milk
In teahouses and supermarkets we can find a wide selection of various teas - homogeneous, flavored, fruit mixtures, etc. Sometimes it is worth trying to change and treat yourself to a delicious and aromatic one, and most of all natural tea with spices. Although, it will take longer to prepare, than brewing regular express tea, however, the great taste and aroma will compensate for the effort put in and provide a real feast for all the senses.
Tea infusion is one of the beverages most consumed by us. On the one hand, this is a positive phenomenon, because tea contains many ingredients that have a beneficial effect on our body, m.in. flawonoidy, which capture free radicals or catechins that protect against cardiovascular diseases. On the other hand, drinking tea every day made, that its taste has become commonplace and does not make any impression on us. Therefore, it is worth finding a free moment, to rediscover the unique taste of tea infusion. We especially recommend teas with spices (ginger, cardamom, cinnamon) with the addition of milk, which have a warming effect, and also stimulate the senses.
