Bite open a pod, and the flavor will fill your mouth and a warm sensation will spread throughout your body. - Cardamom is a cooking staple in many Far Eastern countries and is second only to black pepper in terms of usage worldwide. The first historical mention of cardamom dates to the 4th century BC in the writings of Greek Physician Theophrastus who claimed the pods had health value. - Modern usage of the spice, however, stems from the cultures of southern India. The people there held Cardamom in such high regard that they used it as an offering to the gods during religious ceremonies. - We hold this tea in such high regard that we recommend brewing a pot and making an offering to your friends, or dinner guests.

Place 1 teabag for each desired cup into the teapot. Pour the boiling water into the pot, cover and let steep for 2-4 minutes. Pour into your cup; add milk and natural sweeteners to taste. - Iced tea brewing method: (to make 1 liter/quart): Place 5 teabags into a teapot or heat resistant pitcher. Pour 1 1/4 cups of freshly boiled water over the teabags. Steep for 5 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into the serving pitcher. Add ice and top-up with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste. [A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to double the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water]. Please note that this tea may tend to go cloudy or "milky" when poured over ice
