LEBANON'S NEW MAMA SPICED TEA (AINAR)

Lebanon's New Mama Spiced Tea (Ainar) image

The neat thing about Ainar is the treat at the bottom of the cup, nuts. After cooking a bunch of warming, fragrant spices like cinnamon, caraway, anise, and nutmeg in a large pot of water, the hot tea is poured over assorted nuts with as much sugar or honey as you can stand. Walnut, almond, and pine nuts are the most common. Anise is said to help mamas recover from childbirth. Recipe from Penzy's Spices' 2012 early summer catalog.

LEBANESE TEA

Lebanese Tea image

A light and refreshing version of iced tea that is served at all the local Greek and Lebanese restaurants. I was quite surprised to discover that this recipe actually originated in the New Orleans / Baton Rouge area. The pine nuts don't add anything to the flavor of the drink, so I usually leave them off. I buy my rose water from a local middle eastern grocery store - you can also find it at world market and whole foods, or online. You can adjust the amounts of sugar, rose water, and lemon juice to suit your tastes.

Ingredients

1 gallon water, divided
2 family sized tea bags
1/3 cup lemon juice
3/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons rose water
1 tablespoon pine nuts (optional)

Steps:

Bring 2 quarts of water to a boil. Place tea bags in a gallon sized pitcher, and pour the boiling water over. Steep for 5-7 minutes.
Remove tea bags, and stir in the sugar, lemon juice, and rose water. Stir until sugar is thoroughly dissolved.
Top with water until you have 1 gallon of tea. Chill, and serve over ice, with a few pine nuts sprinkled in each glass if desired. I usually leave off the nuts since they don't add to the flavor.
