Old Maid Tea
Kimberly from Corvallis, OR - remembers her favorite childhood food memory... My Mom & my Grandmother both drank this when they were kids. My Mom made it for me & now my girls enjoy it too! Old Maid's Tea is half a cup of milk w/ honey & nutmeg - heat it up - add water (whatever temp. to make it comfortable to drink)- mix & enjoy! Thanks Kimberly.. what a fun memory.. and I love the name. Here's a few hot drink recipes I have found... a tad different than yours...
