Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Warm milk (dairy or non-dairy, e.g., almond, oat, or cashew)
- 1 teabag or teaspoon Chamomile tea (loose-leaf or teabag)
- 1 tablespoon Honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Nutmeg (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium-low heat until it is warm but not boiling. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching.
Once the milk is warmed, remove it from the heat and add the chamomile tea (loose-leaf tea in a tea infuser or a teabag). Let it steep for 4-5 minutes, ensuring the calming chamomile flavor infuses well into the milk.
Remove the chamomile tea (discard the teabag or remove the tea infuser).
Stir in the honey (or maple syrup), ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract until fully dissolved and well combined.
Pour the Lullaby Potion into your favorite mug.
Optionally, sprinkle a pinch of nutmeg on top for an extra cozy touch.
Sip slowly, relax, and enjoy your pathway to peaceful rest.
