Ingredients
- 1 ripe pear, sliced
- ½ a cinnamon stick
- 2 tsp rooibos leaf tea
Method
Put the pear slices into a large saucepan and add 600ml water and the piece of cinnamon stick – keep a slice or 2 of pear back to use as decoration later if you like. Bring to a simmer, then cook the pear slices for 5-6 mins or until softening.
Take the pan off the heat and add the rooibos tea.
Let the mixture steep for 2-3 mins then strain into a warm teapot to serve, garnished with extra pear slices if you like.
