apollo’s sun tea

- ☀️✨

hi there! sorry for my little hiatus, i came into a short rut with my craft but somethin came around and sparked some inspiration in me! so, you don’t have to be an apollo devotee to make this tea, and you can definitely use it for any of your deities that may like this like sol or even cernunnos, or just drink it in spirit of the sun’s energies! it’s super delish and cozy and i recommend it best served warm or nice and steamy hot :)

- ☀️

[what you’ll need; ]

- black tea

- chamomile tea

- a cinnamon stick

- honey

[steps;]

- get your water to a nice n bubbly boil in a small pot/kettle device and drop your cinnamon stick in, begin to turn your heat down to low-medium

- as your boil softens, stir in your honey clockwise. choose this time to communicate or give a few graditutues, this part is 100% customizable and totally optional ofc

- once your boil is hardly a simmer, drop in your black tea, stirring intentionally for a moment or so then go ahead and drop in your chamomile and do the same

- take it off the heat right after you’re done stirring and let it brew for maybe 3 minutes or so, strain and enjoy!
