Warm and Toasty Mocktail: Sweet Adeline

If you are seeking a gentle drink to warm up with on a cold winter night I have a new creation to share.

Sweet Adeline began as a desire to change up my tea routine and finished off with a sweet cup of warm goodness. In it I've combined three juices - apple, cranberry, and pomegranate - which are warmed and then steeped with chamomile tea. It is an easy drink to make, almost as easy as brewing a cup of tea and the lack of alcohol makes it an ideal drink for everyone anytime of the day.

A few adaptations:

  • I have also tried this with a cinnamon-based tea (namely, Bigelow's Constant Comment), which adds a darker spice aspect.
  • The recipe can easily be increased to serve many people at once.
  • If you want to add a little spirit to the drink, rum is the best choice.
