Pomegranate Potion
- 34 cup water
- 1 teaspoon black tea
- 1 inch gingerroot, minced
- 5 allspice berries
- 12 cinnamon stick
- 1 ice cube
- 12 cup pomegranate juice, unsweetened
- 2 teaspoons dark corn syrup
- Chill pomegranate juice.
- Brew black tea with 3/4 cup water and 1 teaspoon black tea.
- Let steep for 3 minutes, then discard the tea leaves.
- In a little pot, bring brewed tea, minced ginger, allspice berries and 1/2 cinnamon stick to a slow boil, let simmer for 20 minutes.
- Before removing from the stove, stir in 2 teaspoons corn syrup.
- Place 1 ice cube in a mug.
- Remove from stove, strain liquid through a sieve into the mug, over the ice cube.
- Let cool to room temperature.
- Do not chill!
- Chilling will kill the flavours, and you don't want that.
- When cooled down to room temperature, add 1/2 cup chilled pomegranate juice.
- Enjoy!
- NOTE: the story continues -- Something reddish ochre, hardly visible anymore.
- I spent many nights to restore the ancient, nearly destroyed writing, and then finally, I got it!
- It was the recipe of a potion made from pomegranate juice and other very obscure ingredients.
- You better not know what this was meant for, but after removing the more dubious and dangerous ingredients, a wonderful recipe for a recreating, healthy, yet aromatic and spicy potion remained!
