Gluten Free Chamomile, Peppermint & Ginger Tea
This soothing herbal blend is the kind of drink that feels like a deep breath in a mug — floral chamomile, cooling peppermint, and a gentle kick of fresh ginger all working together in perfect harmony. A whisper of vanilla powder rounds everything out, giving it a subtle warmth that makes it feel almost indulgent without any added fuss. Every single ingredient here is naturally free from gluten, so there's no label-checking or substitution stress — just pure, wholesome comfort straight from your stovetop. The method is beautifully simple: simmer the ginger first to coax out its spice, then let the chamomile and peppermint steep off the heat so their delicate oils don't cook away. A drizzle of honey at the end lets you dial in the sweetness exactly to your liking. It's the kind of recipe you'll find yourself coming back to on slow mornings, restless evenings, or any time you need something genuinely calming in your hands.
