Spicy Cardamom Drink: In many Northern European countries, [cardamom](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardamom) is a winter spice that adds warmth and zest to mulled wines and hot winter punches. In both North America and the _Middle East_, it is used to enhance the flavour of the traditionally bitter and strong coffee, while in Africa cardamom is added into tea. Try a flavourful and refreshing hot infusion of cardamom pods, which is usually served after dinner since it also aids digestion. To prepare this drink, put about 12 whole crushed pods into 6 cups boiling water. Add a strip of orange peel and brew for about 10 minutes. Add 2 tbsp black tea leaves, leave for 5 minutes more, and strain. Serve immediately with hot milk and honey. It is a pure delight to sip this spicy drink at the end of a chilly winter day, especially if to snuggle cosily with your cup under a warm blanket! :) ## Related Posts - [9 Fantastic Winter Soup Recipes ...](https://cooking.allwomenstalk.com/fantastic-winter-soup-recipes/) - [9 Comforting Soup Recipes ...](https://allwomenstalk.com/9-comforting-soup-recipes/) - [7 Techniques for Making the Perfect Cup of Tea ...](https://allwomenstalk.com/7-techniques-for-making-the-perfect-cup-of-tea/) - [7 Beverage Recipes That Will Keep You Toasty ...](https://food.allwomenstalk.com/beverage-recipes-that-will-keep-you-toasty/) - [8 Fun & Warm Drinks to Make This Winter ...](https://food.allwomenstalk.com/fun-warm-drinks-to-make-this-winter/) - [9 Warming Winter Stews ...](https://eatial.com/warming-winter-stews/) - [8 Amazing Summer Cocktails ...](https://food.allwomenstalk.com/amazing-summer-cocktails/) - [9 Tasty Low-cal Cocktails for Summer ...](https://food.allwomenstalk.com/tasty-low-cal-cocktails-for-summer/) - [8 Winter Recipes to Keep You Warm ...](https://food.allwomenstalk.com/winter-recipes-to-keep-you-warm/) - [9 Cool New Ways to Enjoy Your Coffee ...](https://food.allwomenstalk.com/cool-new-ways-to-enjoy-your-coffee/) - [9 Fun Chocolate Drink Recipes to Give a Try ...](https://food.allwomenstalk.com/fun-chocolate-drink-recipes-to-give-a-try/) - [9 Steps to Making Fantastic Cold Brew Coffee ...](https://food.allwomenstalk.com/steps-to-making-fantastic-cold-brew-coffee/) ## Site Information - [Main page](https://allwomenstalk.com) - [Contact us](https://allwomenstalk.com/contact.html) - [HTML article](https://allwomenstalk.com/4-best-hot-drinks-for-winter-time/)
