On a rainy day...

Don't forget your umbrella today.
And maybe a cup of hot tea!

Since this blog's name is Chai Vanilla Tea, I thought I'd pass along a delicious recipe:
From About.com:

Ingredients:
4 cups water
3 allspice, whole
5 cloves, whole
1 cinnamon stick
1 vanilla bean (1-inch)
1/3 cup honey
1 tbs loose black tea leaves

Preparation:In a saucepan, heat water along with all the spices. Bring to a lower simmer, and let steep for about 5 minutes. Add tea leaves, and continue to steep for another 5 minutes. Strain out the tea, and stir in honey. Serve hot.

Enjoy!!
