Thermomix Turkish Apple Tea Recipe

Thermomix Turkish Apple Tea Recipe

The most delicious winter-warmer drink… a little bit sweet, a little bit spiced, a little bit punchy. Serve as your afternoon cup of tea, or great after a meal if you’re looking for something sweet without going for the whole dessert!
