How to make it

Step 1: Brew the Tea

  1. Pour the boiling water over the rooibos tea bag in a mug and let it steep for 5 minutes. Remove the tea bag.

Step 2: Warm the Spiced Base

  1. Transfer the brewed rooibos tea to a small saucepan over low heat.
  2. Add the pear juice, honey, cinnamon stick, and star anise to the saucepan. Heat gently for 3 to 4 minutes until hot, but do not let it reach a boil.

Step 3: Assemble the Drink

  1. Remove the saucepan from the heat.
  2. Stir in the fresh lemon juice and the Oude Jenever.
  3. Pour the warm liquid into your tempered glass mug, transferring the cinnamon stick and star anise from the pan into the mug.

Garnish

A cinnamon stick and a floating star anise.

Make it alcohol-free

Replace the Oude Jenever with a non-alcoholic botanical spirit like Hooghoudt Zero Zero 24, or simply swap it for a splash of ginger beer to keep the spicy warmth.
