For over 8 years, Alex Harney has been traveling to the Himalayas to coach ice hockey with The Hockey Foundation. After practices and games, Kashmiri Kahwa was served and enjoyed, and this is our take on that experience. We used Kangra tea from the Himachal Pradesh region in India, which lends a unique taste as a base tea, and then added cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, safflowers, and almond flavor. This tea can be enjoyed as is, but for a more traditional experience, sweeten and serve with crushed almonds. 50% of sales go to support The Hockey Foundation’s programs.
