Master Cleanse Diet Recipe is very simple and there are only a few ingredients to prepare. You have to follow the ingredients listed and no substitutions of any of the ingredients. Do it a continuous of 10 days and feel the difference.

Ingredients for 1 serving:

- 10 Ounces Pure Filtered Water (Warm)

- 2 Tablespoon of Grade B Organic Maple Syrup

- 1/10 Organic Cayenne Pepper (Red)

- 2 Tablespoon of Organic Lemons

Optional Ingredients:

- Laxative Tea

- Decaffeinated Natural Herbal Tea

- Pure Hoodia Gordonii Extract

When you are on Master Cleanse, you should be drinking plenty of water. For example, if you weight 130 pounds, you should drink at least 130 ounces of water. I am also encouraging people who got the intention of trying this diet to use organic ingredients because the purpose of going on this diet for 10 days is to remove any poisonous toxins and wastes from your body in order to achieve an optimum result. It is best to stay away from ingredients that has been sprayed with pesticides.

Some people actually replaced Fresh Lemons with Concentrated Lemons and that is not right because Concentrated Lemons are normally filled with sugars and preservatives which are not advisable to use it during the cleanse.

Optional Ingredients like Laxative Tea can be used in addition to Master Cleanse Diet, drinking Laxative Tea helps to increase elimination and it helps to address the two main difficulties such as hunger pangs and food cravings. As for Decaffeinated Natural Herbal Tea,it will help you when you are getting too bored with just drinking Lemonade.

Many times, hunger is often the main reason that people gave up during this 10 days diet and it is impossible to avoid getting hungry but with the optional ingredient, Hoodia Gordonii Extract, it can help to curb your appetite and overcome the hunger.

Finishing Master Cleanse is definitely not easy but with the right instructions, methods and determination to follow. I believed it is achievable. If you would like to know more about this diet, i would suggest you to read the guide : Master Cleanse Secrets.

If you love tea, you may be interested in tea recipes. Tea is actually an amazing ingredient in a variety of recipes.

Tea leaves are not just for steeping anymore and some of the most tantalizing recipes are being developed by top chefs by using tea leaves as an ingredient.

Here are just some of the types of recipes you can find that include uses leaves or liquid. (and by the way, you sometimes eat the leaves!!)

Marinades – there are becoming more and more marinades and sauces that use tea as an ingredient. You can add some flair to a bland white sauce by adding just a teaspoon of green tea leaves or some stongly brewed black tea.

Cakes – there are some terrific cake recipes that use tea as an ingredient. All you do to create your own fabulous recipe is replace the liquid with strongly brewed tea. I just made some Rooibos Angel Food Cake and it was delicious. My daughter made Spiced Angel Food using a Christmas Chai Tea as the liquid replacment.

Ice Cream – Most of us have heard about Green Tea Ice Cream – it typically uses matcha (powdered green tea) as an ingredient and matcha is excellent in many different recipes. It also gives a beautiful green tea color to your scones, cookies and cakes.

How about a licorice tea ice cream? Sounds delicious doesn’t it? Tea can be used as an ingredient in many recipes and dishes. I often use it as I would a spice or herb.

So a few leaves floating in the soup? My family loves it and it is really good for you too. You get all the health properties of the tea you are infusing and cooking with.

So as a general rule of thumb, and in my experimenting with using tea as an ingredient – the easiest thing to do is replace the liquid in the recipe with a strong brew – 4 times strength what you would drink is a great rule of thumb.

Bergamot Scones are simply delicious. The undertone of the bergamot or beebalm is really nice. Just use very strong bergamot tea in place of half the cream.

I hope this article inspired you to do more with tea than just drink it!

What most people know in the Western world as chai tea is called “masala chai” in the Eastern world. Whatever you call it, this tea has a history as full as its flavor. Chai is a milky tea with flavorful spices that are added.

This creamy milk like tea was first mentioned in recorded history some 5,100 years ago. A royal Indian king is believed to have discovered chai tea. He used it to cure many different ailments and as word spread of this tea’s healing properties, more and more people across India began drinking it. Masala Chai became more and more popular in India as people began to drink it on a daily basis to improve their health.

This tea was thought of as a cure for many different diseases. When the seasons would change, farmers would experiment by adding different spices to this milky tea. They would also prepare it hot and cold. Over time, more and more varieties of chai tea were created.

Cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and peppermint are just a few of the traditional spices added to chai tea. Modern spices that were later added by the Western world include vanilla, cocoa, almonds, and licorice. Sweeteners were also added like molasses, brown sugar, cane sugar, and honey. The many different spice and sugar combination’s give this tea its slightly golden color.

British colonization of India around 1880 led to tea plantations being created in Assam, India. Tea was grown and cultivated to produce a fine black tea. This Assam tea recipe became the main recipe used in chai tea and it is still the recipe that is used today around the world.

The main producer of masala chai tea was in Assam, India. The time and effort required to make this tea made it one of the more expensive teas on the world market. In 1960, a new method of production was invented called the “cut, tear, and curl” method. This new method gave this black tea and even stronger flavor. It also was a quicker, less expensive method of production. This new flavor and lower cost helped skyrocket this tea to new levels of popularity around the world.

Many families have their own special masala chai recipes that have been passed down through generations. One of the most common methods for making masala chai begins with the boiling of loose black tea leaves, milk, freshly ground spices and a sweetener. Once the tea has been boiled, steeped and simmered the chai mixture is poured over a strainer to filter out the tea leaves and spice residue. Masala chai is a wonderfully palatable drink with a unique sweet and savory taste. The milky tea is usually served warm, fresh off the stove, but it can also be served over ice as a cool and refreshing drink.
