Summer Heat Dessert: Vegan Matcha/Coconut Jelly and Ajwain seeds/Goji berryTea 🍵🌱😋❤️🌺

Hello everyone, hope you have a peaceful Sunday! 🤗

I soaked raw almonds overnight to make almond milk for my Matcha/Coconut Jelly dessert. I blended almond milk with Vegan Matcha Tea/coconut milk powder and filtered with nut bag cloth to get a smooth liquid. Boiled with Vegan Agar powder and refrigerated for a cool dessert served with a bit of date syrup. 😋👍

With this heat, I love Ajwain seeds tea as it’s known for summer tea with many health benefits without the caffeine so I can drink at any time of the day. This tea is so lovely when chilled with Goji berries for natural mildly sweet and antioxidant/tasty summer drink. 🍵😋👍

Ajwain Tea: Carom seeds have been known for antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects and treating peptic ulcers and reducing blood pressure and cholesterol levels. Active enzymes in ajwain improve the flow of stomach acids, which can help to relieve indigestion, bloating, and gas. The plant can also help to treat peptic ulcers as well as sores in the esophagus, stomach, and intestines. (⚠️Not for pregnant women.)

Hi Koko your matcha coconut jelly looks wonderful perfectly made and a lovely colour.

Ajwain tea sounds interesting and it’s similar to cumin I think so full of flavour.

On one of the links after all the health benefits it says that pregnant women should avoid eating ajwain seeds. So it’s important to flag this up.

I’d never have thought if making tea from a seed like cumin so nice one Koko you’re certainly inventive.

And I’d love some of that matcha jelly…😁

Hi Jerry, thank you for saying that about my dessert! 😁🙏

I like it’s very light and savory at the same time for summer. 😋👍

Tea: you are right it is similar to cumin seed but the taste and aroma is much like thyme. It’s a change for tea beverage from our traditional teas.

Thank you for bringing that to my attention as I added caution in my tea post section. 😊

This looks wonderful Koko, have to say - your plate is very pretty too.

Ajwain tea sounds great to me, I think I will give that a whirl - I am always looking for different things to drink

It all looks wonderfully delicious 😁

Awe thank you Debs, you’re so sweet and kind! 🤗🙏❤️

Please give this a try, it’s so great for indigestion and stomach acid relief. 😁👍

I do love to collect porcelain and ceramic kitchen essentials, they enhance the beauty of our kitchen and dinner table. 😇I love your kitchen essentials also. I tried to look up your “made from love” plate but didn’t see it. 😁

Hope you have a good night rest and a great start on Monday! 😊

[Kitten-whiskers Administrator in reply to Hidden]

How lovely, It does make all the difference 😊

They seem to have stopped selling the made with love plates, sadly - I thought it was Ideal for vegans 🙃

[Hidden in reply to Kitten-whiskers]

Yes Debs, many of my dinning sets got discontinued too. I think your made with love plates later on can be antique. 😇

Really good choice for a drink! Refreshing and good for you. As you probably would figure out, I usually go for cold ice tea rather than hot and with a hint of sweetness. You’re always outdoing yourself and coming up with new and creative inventions for healthy foods 👍

[Hidden in reply to Kainan]

Awe thank you Kainan for saying that! 🤗🙏

Yes you can infuse these seeds into your water and keep in the fridge for hydration and so soothing for your digestion health too. 😁👍

Enjoy the rest of your evening! 😊

[Kainan Guest in reply to Hidden]

Thanks you as well. 😊

The truth is that looks amazing😍. Thanks for sharing your knowledge of ajwain tea and carom seeds! I was unaware of them. I deeply appreciate you sharing and have a good night. 🙏🤗

[Hidden in reply to ZazenRiver345]

Awe thank you Zazen for saying that! 🤗

If you look it up, it was an ancient remedy that favored by many Persian physicians for antiseptic, digestion, oral health…also. It has unique and comfort taste when drinking it. 😋👍

Enjoy the rest of your evening! 😊

Thank you very much Happyman4! 🤗🙏

Your panacota with rose water idea is absolutely brilliant. I love rose water so much that I add into my daily water sometimes for aromatic flavor. 😁

It will be so amazing dessert if you decide to make it! 😋👍
