Mint to Be: Iced Mint Tea with Chocolate Cold Foam

Make it a moment

  1. Brew Blooming Soothe in 150ml freshly boiled water for 6–8 minutes. This stronger brew keeps the mint bright once the ice and foam are added.
  2. Remove the tea leaves and leave the brew to cool for a few minutes.
  3. In a small cup, mix the cocoa powder, maple syrup and teaspoon of hot water into a smooth chocolate paste. Leave it to cool.
  4. Add the chocolate mixture to the cold milk with a tiny pinch of salt. Froth on the cold setting until thick, smooth and pourable. Alternatively, whisk vigorously or shake in a tightly sealed jar.
  5. Fill a tall glass with ice and pour over the mint tea.
  6. Gently spoon the chocolate cold foam on top. Finish with a little grated dark chocolate if you’re feeling fancy.

Keep the layers separate and sip through the foam. Fresh mint hits first, followed by soft, creamy chocolate - and yes, they were mint to be.
