Last fall at the end of one of my posts I ended with “Please, sir, I want some more”, & then offered to send my xmas CD to the first person who guessed what movie it was a quote from. Michelle won!! I sent her the CD & some tea samples as a prize. About a month ago I got a surprise package in return, loaded with generous samples of tea & a cute little note wishing me a good day! Thanks Michelle!
So this tea is in there, & since I was looking around for one more ‘no caffeine’ cup to end my day, this one seemed like a perfect fit.
Since I’m allergic to milk, I’ve never had a creme brulee, but I’m wondering if I could make something like that with canned coconut milk…like an egg custard, topped with brown sugar, set under the broiler briefly…hmmm…of course, I don’t really eat brown sugar either…maybe some date sugar…
Ooops! I got off track into fantasy world. This is a tasty tea, it looks like a pretty little confetti, & in spite of the fine milling , I didn’t get any rooibos stuck on my tonsils, so it was a win.

You can! I use this recipe—http://thedustybaker.com/2011/12/27/coconut-milk-creme-brulee/
The type of sugar doesn’t matter as long as you can torch it. I used date sugar for Christmas Creme Brulees this year and everyone loved it.

Thanks Grace! That looks awesome!
Mmmm, coconut creme brulee sounds even better than regular creme brulee.
You’re welcome. It’s my go-to holiday recipe for dessert.
