Click the link below to view all of their tasty suggestions, but here are three spicy ideas to get you going:

  • Cinnamon stick + sliced ginger + a pinch of turmeric = a spicy, anti-inflammatory cuppa.
  • Red chilli pepper + a couple of cloves + honey = soothing sips for oncoming colds.
  • Cardamom pods + sliced ginger + a few peppercorns = I just think this would taste good, especially with a little coconut milk.

The fun isn’t limited to the spice rack — according the Extra Crispy, your compost pile can get in on the action. Apparently carrot tops, fennel and celery leaves all make a really nice tea. What a world.
