Quế Tulsi

The hot ginger hits first, then the cassia cinnamon wraps it up sweet—the orange peel keeps it from getting cloying. I keep a tin on my desk and reach for it whenever the afternoon slump makes me crave something cozy.

I brew this before bed when I need to unwind, and the orange peel comes through just enough to brighten the cassia's sweetness without stealing the show. The holy basil adds a gentle calm that lingers, making it feel more like a ritual than just a cup of tea.

The ginger hits first with a sharp warmth, then the cinnamon and orange peel soften it into something cozy. I've been adding a pinch to my plain black tea and it turns the whole cup into a hug.
