Yogi Tea Recipe

3/18/2020

0 Comments

 
Makes approximately 1 gallon

Ingredients: 
1 Gallon Water
2 Tbsp cardamom pods
1 tsp peppercorns
1 scant tsp cloves
6 cinnamon sticks
24 slices of ginger
Pinch of black tea or 1 tea bag (optional, we do not use this in the UYC tea)

Instructions:
  1. Combine water, spices & ginger and bring to a boil. 
  2. After a few minutes of boiling, add the black tea, if using.
  3. Boil actively for 15 minutes, then reduce to a simmer, covered for 30 minutes. 
  4. Strain and store
  5. Stir in milk (dairy or non-dairy) and sweetener of choice to taste to individual cups, or enjoy on its own. 

Stores in fridge up to two weeks.

We know how much this is enjoyed after class. It's also has amazing benefits (see below). 
Since alas we aren't able to meet in person, here is the recipe. As long as you are making it, might as well make it by the gallon. Store in a glass mason jar after it cools, and heat as you need.


Spices and their benefits: 
Black pepper: blood purifier
Cardamom pods: digestive aid
Cloves: beneficial to the nervous system
Cinnamon: strengthens the bones
Ginger root: healing for colds and flu, increases energy, also a digestive aid

    Kundalini Yoga Quotes:

    “I’d never felt anything like it; it was just an opening of energy and a feeling of such liberation.” -Marika Bethel, owner, Glowing House

    “Within the first ten minutes, I thought, ‘[kundalini yoga] is the best thing that’s ever happened to me,’” -Gabrielle Bernstein

    "Kundalini Yoga is the crack cocaine of yoga; if Hatha is a mild weed high, Iyengar is a deep hash glow and Ashtanga is amphetamine, Kundalini Yoga blows the F*@&ing doors off." -Russell Brand
