Wake up to homemade flaky,  buttery ginger scones this weekend

There is nothing I love more than a homemade brunch with my family.  This includes the full spread.  From omelettes to chilaquiles to sweet scones with hot tea.  Homemade scones are my absolute favorite and I love to prepare them for special occasions. They are very easy to make and can be customized to sweet or savory flavors. Ginger Scones This year, I decided to bake some delicious flaky scones with crystalized pieces of ginger.  The holiday season is upon us and these are perfect to enjoy Christmas morning. The best part about these scones is the glaze I prepared with Tadin Ginger Tea Blend.  It gives it that fragrant, spicy ginger taste form the tea I love.

Ginger Scones These scones are magnificent when freshly baked.  But if you’d like to make them ahead of time, they keep well and can last up to 4 days in a tight sealed container or freezer bag in a cool dry area of your kitchen. Ginger Scones Tadin Teas has a variety of teas that can make other tea based glazes.  I can’t wait to modify this recipe into cinnamon scones made with Tadin Canelita Tea. Enjoy these scones with your family this holiday season.  Don’t forget to pair them with your favorite cup of Tadin tea. Ginger Scones Print
