A Delectable Tea-Infused Dessert

December 10, 2017

Craving something creamy and delicious, but without dairy and refined sugar? Want another idea for how to use your favorite Pumpkin Chai Spice tea? This mouth-watering custard is the perfect dessert for this holiday season! It’s quick, easy, and delicious.

Here’s what you’ll need:

1 Avocado
1 cup soaked Cashews (soak 2+ hours)
1.5 cups strongly brewed Pumpkin Chai Spice
2 very ripe Persimmons, pitted
2-6 tbsp Coconut Nectar (or adjust to taste)
1 tbsp Vanilla Extract
Pinch Salt

You want to brew the tea as strongly as possible, because this gives the custard its distinctive flavor. In addition, I like to soak the cashews overnight.

To make the recipe, first add the tea, vanilla, salt, and cashews, and blend until mostly smooth. Allow the blender to wait and cool for a minute. Then add the avocado, persimmons and coconut nectar and blend thoroughly. Plate, serve, and enjoy!

Did you know... Many tea companies sell their tea in teabags that are made with plastic? I hate to say it, but it's true. A recent study conducted in 2019 showed that many of the teabags made by some of the most popular brands contain plastic. The study showed that one teabag of tea steeped at 95C (203F) released “approximately 11.6 billion microplastics and 3.1 billion nanoplastics into a single cup of the beverage.” This is a much higher level of plastic being ingested than what you are exposed to in other foods.
