This cosy season, we’re celebrating the magical world of tea with a new tea powder not seen before in our collection. Say hello to Vanilla Kafe Hawaij Tea Powder.
Kafe Hawaij is a versatile traditional Yemeni spice blend often used to add warmth & spice to beverages such as coffee or even in meals & baking. Along with its aromatic, spiced yet sweet flavour, we loved the symbolism of hospitality & warmth often associated with Kafe Hawaij, and so have created a B&B spin on the recipe that celebrates its traditional roots.
Our version includes a blend of cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, cloves, & nutmeg along with a vanilla twist to create a smooth, caffeine-free tea powder that can be prepared & enjoyed any time of day.
Lovers of our chai blends & our other tea powders won’t want to miss this. Like chai, Vanilla Kafe Hawaij has a gently spiced flavour profile that’s perfect for the change in season. Whisk it up as a hot, frothy latte with oat milk & a dash of cinnamon for a warming hug in a mug, or serve over ice with milk or water for a hydrating boost. Looking for another Cinnamon treat? Why not follow the same steps using limited edition Cinnamon Bun Matcha!
Method 1: Traditional Whisking
Like when making a mug of magical matcha, you’ll need either a Bamboo Matcha Whisk or our Handheld Milk & Matcha Frother along with your Perfect Matcha Spoon.
- Add one level Perfect Matcha Spoon (½ tsp) of tea powder into a bowl & add a splash of boiling water.
- Whisk using a Bamboo Matcha Whisk or milk frother until all the powder is dissolved.
- Pour into your favourite cosy mug
From here, you can make…
-
Hot Tea: Top up with hot water & add a splash of milk if desired.
-
Hot Tea Latte: Gently warm 150ml of milk, froth, then add to your mug with a pump of vanilla or cinnamon syrup to taste if you’d like.
- Iced Tea Latte: Pour your shot over ice & top up with cold milk.
Method 2: Magic Whisk Method
Here's how to make a velvety tea powder latte using our Matcha Latte Magic Whisk!
-
Add 250ml of your chosen milk to your Matcha Latte Magic Whisk & press the power button.
-
Sprinkle 1 Perfect Matcha Spoon of Vanilla Kafe Hawaij Tea Powder over your milk as it spins in your Magic Whisk. By gently sprinkling the tea powder over the milk as it spins, you can achieve the best results & avoid any clumping.
-
After you have sprinkled in your tea powder, you can then add 1 teaspoon of your vanilla syrup (optional).
-
Place the lid on top of your machine & watch the magic happen.
-
Pour into your favourite mug & enjoy!
