Can you put spice in a drink?

It's amazing how spices can add flavour and flavor to food. But how can you make them live when they're used in drinks.

Spices add a wonderful depth to any beverage. Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to your favorite beverage, such as coffee, tea, or hot chocolate.

Most recipes call for ground spices. This means that you'll need fresh whole spice. Although this is logical, it can be costly, time-consuming, and takes up storage space.

Here's where the magic happens. With your creativity, you can turn your favorite spices into easy-to-use powdered products. Then you can mix them into your favourite beverages to create delicious spiced drinks.

Two ways can you make powders. One way is to grind whole spices into fine powder. Another way is to grind the spices in a mortar and pestle.

It doesn't matter what method you choose, the result is easier to measure out than whole spices and easier to store. Powder also keeps well so you won't run dry.

Mixing different spices can create new flavors. Peppermint and spearmint can be combined to make minty water. Or ginger and cardamom pods to make spicy ginger tea.

Once you have mastered the art of making powdered spices you can use that same technique for herbs. Some of the most common herbs are basil, rosemary, thyme, oregano and sage.

The possibilities are limitless. Use powdered spices to give your beverages extra flavour or to enhance the taste of dishes such as soups, salads, and pasta.
