A second way to make Chai
Someone has sent you some gingerbread-men with a lovely buttercream frosting.
Those would be great dipped in tea.
Dip cookie in hot earl grey.
Oh! That frosting dissolves REALLY fast!
Oh! oh dear! So does the cookie!
What a mess.
Take a sip of your now thicker, slightly creamy, somewhat gingerbreaded tea.
This is a -delicious- mess
Enjoy!

How to make iced tea:
recipe by kest
Make a pot of tea
Drink it
Decide you need another pot of tea
Make another pot of tea
Go out
Come back, hours later
Decide you want a pot of a -different- kind of tea
Dump the previously made pot into a spare pint glass in order to make room for fresh tea
Put pint glass of tea in fridge
Be delighted when, much later, you open the fridge to look for a snack and you instead find pre-made tea
Enjoy!

How to make a post-holiday recovery tea:
Recipe by kest
Make a pot of tea.
Find yesterday's teacup, with a bit of tea left in it.
Decide that standing up to clean the cup is too much effort.
Pour fresh tea over whatever remains in cup.
Take a sip.
That wasn't tea in the old cup. That was scotch in the old cup.
Oh well. This is fine.
Enjoy!

How to make ginger tea:
Recipe based on a suggestion by Eryn, at Pakt in Kingston
Place a large chunk of candied ginger in teacup.
Pour hot earl grey to rim
The first sip will be pretty much earl grey, but by the bottom it will be deliciously sweet and gingery.
Eat the now un-candied ginger
Refill cup with plain earl grey
enjoy!
