Infusion - Gingerbread: and the magic of Christmas works

Open the bag and the magic is already happening. This infusion makes you think of the Christmas holidays that you share with the people you are closest to. Most of my infusions invite you to travel around the world. This time, I propose an emotional journey through time, a return to childhood at the foot of the Christmas tree with the sweet smell of gingerbread baking in the oven. There is a very regressive aspect with this infusion under the spell of which you will fall.

This gingerbread infusion is composed of generous pieces of apple, cinnamon, the undisputed star of gingerbread, but also pieces of slivered almonds. Caramelized and roasted, these flaked almonds are present from the opening of the bag and bring to the whole a real coherence of tastes.
