Looking for a fun spice to add to your next banana bread loaf or even cookies? Try adding a couple of Tea Drops into the mix. It's pretty easy to incorporate a couple of Tea Drops to substitute any ingredients you need, and here's what you have to do:
For every Tea Drop you're adding, we recommend first melting the drops in 2 oz of hot water. Adding 2 Tea Drops? Melt in 4 oz of water! You can then add that mixture to any batter or dough.
