Angel Tea

Day 5

When I was a little girl my mom would make me Angel Tea when I was sick. I used to think it had healing properties, and there was something so comforting about it when mom brought you a cup of this warm and magical potion.

Really it’s just tea with a little sugar and milk. I believe that it is also referred to as Milk Tea. The funny thing about positive childhood memories like this one is that it doesn’t matter the simplicity of the recipe, but the gesture my mom was making trying to comfort me when I was sick that showed me that she loved me.

Now, a few years later, when I’m not feeling well, with Angel Tea in a treasured cup, I find comfort in the magical potion and the memories it holds.
