Instructions
- Pour the boiling water over the chamomile tea bag in a heatproof mug. Let steep for 3 minutes, then remove the tea bag and squeeze it to release the remaining tea.
- Place the frozen yogurt, ice cream, or sorbet in a small bowl or mug and dollop with the orange marmalade. Pour the hot chamomile tea over the top and serve immediately.
Tips and Storage
- Choose pure chamomile tea without added natural flavors for the cleanest floral taste.
- Steep for only 3 minutes so the tea stays fragrant and delicate.
- Chill the serving cup first to slow the melting.
- Assemble only when ready to eat; this dessert does not store well.
