A Valentine Menu
02.09.25
There are many ways to express love but one of our favorite ways is to cook for someone. You can infuse so much love and care into the food and drink you prepare. Here are some tea-infused drinks and a dessert that we'll be making for our valentine this year. Recipes courtesy of our loving friends, Leif Hedendal and Rosie Dooley.

1/2 c (100g) egg yolks
