The Secret Life of Ice Cream — From Salt to Squid Ink. AI-Generated.
Ice Cream Didn’t Start with Cream The earliest versions of ice cream didn’t even contain cream or milk. Ancient Chinese and Persian civilizations were known to mix snow with fruit juices or honey, creating the first “icy desserts.” In fact, around 200 BC, Chinese nobility enjoyed a frozen mix of rice and milk packed in snow — something like an early ice milk.

More Than Just a Sip: The World’s Most Flavorful Teas and Their Origins, Teas Lover Must Try It. AI-Generated.
All Tea Comes from One Plant Surprisingly, almost all the teas we drink today — black, green, white, oolong — come from the same plant: Camellia sinensis. What makes them different is how the leaves are treated after they’re harvested. For example, black tea is fully oxidized, which gives it that bold, dark taste. Green tea is steamed or pan-fired right after plucking to prevent oxidation, giving it a lighter, more refreshing flavor. White tea is the least processed and comes from young buds, making it the most delicate in both color and taste.

The Healing Power of Zobo Iced Tea with Cinnamon, Ginger, and Lemon.
In my kitchen today, nine glass jars gleamed like liquid rubies. Inside each jar is a brew that has been loved for generations across Africa and beyond — zobo tea. This vibrant iced tea is made from dried hibiscus petals, simmered gently with cinnamon, fresh ginger, and lemon. I have chosen to make mine without sugar, allowing the natural tang of hibiscus, the warmth of cinnamon, the spice of ginger, and the brightness of lemon to shine in their purest form. It is more than a drink. It is both nourishment for the body and a quiet reminder of the God who provides healing through His creation.
