celestial wild berry zinger
I recently made a cup of wild berry zinger with honey & milk. There was a foamy substance on the top that stuck to the spoon. It didn’t taste good, so I poured it out only to discover a gelatanous glob of stuff in the bottom of the cup. Anyone know what this is or had this experience?
Sounds like you scalded the milk and it had a skin?
I think the milk probably curdled. I don’t think that type of tea is really made to take dairy.
Celestial Seasonings website gives the ingredients as: “Hibiscus, rosehips, roasted chicory, orange peel, blackberry leaves, natural flavors of black raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, red raspberries, cranberries and cherries with other natural flavors and citric acid.”
You absolutely curdled the milk. Rosehips are acidic too.
Another possibility of that you had some undissolved honey at the bottom. You say it was gelatinous, but was it more honey coloured or milk coloured? I still suggest avoiding milk but depending on how much honey you put in there, you might have had a clump of it.
Oh dear! I guess those wild berries really do zing. Sounds like it was acidic enough to curdle the milk. Sorry friend :(
