Expert Tips

Soy foods may contain soy protein and isoflavones, two components with promise in lowering blood cholesterol and reducing risk of heart disease.

Float an orange slice on the lattes for extra flavor and a finishing touch.

I tried this recipe, but decided to half the amount of honey; and I would have to say, it turned out pretty good. If you like drinks a little less sweet than usual, then I would let the fruit do most of the sweetening. I would certainly make this again.

I love this drink! It's super simple with ingredients I have on hand often. It's a great pick me up when you don't feel like going out to a coffee shop. I make this in the mornings on my way to work and experiment a little with what fruit rind I put in the tea.
