Orange, Cinnamon and Honeydew Tea, and the winner of the J.Friend honey giveaway


Photo and Recipe by Alessandra Zecchini ©


Well, it isn't a tea as such, maybe just a hot drink? But very nice! Squeeze the juice of one orange into a cup, top with boiling water, add a teaspoon of honey (I used beechwood honeydew) and stir with  cinnamon quill. Nice and "Christmasy"!


And now the winner of the J.Friend and Co Honey competition. Thank you to all that took part, sorry for those of you who live overseas (I couldn't include you in the draw) and congratulation to David!!

David, please send me your mailing address (alessandra at clear dot net dot nz) and I am sure that in the end you will share the honey!!!

    La tua ricetta mi riconcilia con il tè, che non amo particolarmente, o meglio.....sento che potrei, ma devo ancora trovare quello giusto!!
    se hai tempo, vieni a fare un giro nella nostra sezione di Natale e dimmi cosa ne pensi...grazie, baci

    Congratulations to your winner. You asked about holiday plans. We will be having 16 people for dinner. That would have meant 32 double cut lamb chops or 2 whole "king" salmon. Both are specialty items and either choice would have cost close to $150. I chose the path of least resistance and decided on the pork. Blessings...Mary

    16 is a lot Mary, yes it is wise to keep the costs under control :-)

    Amo il tè, in tutte le sue versioni... io lo preparo con buccia di arancia, pepe rosa e cannella. Un abbraccio, Chiara.
