Herbal Honey Tea Bombs

Ingredients

Sugar Mold

  • 1/3 rd Cup Light corn syrup
  • 2 Tablespoons water
  • 1 Cup white sugar
  • Semi-circle silicone mold
  • Candy thermometer
  • Gel food coloring

Filling Items

  • Pure Southern Honey (Buy Now)
  • Food-grade dried flowers
  • Organic herbal tea bags

Directions

 

Begin by pouring the corn syrup, water, and white sugar into a stove pot and add a candy thermometer to the rim of the pot facing forward. Bring sugar mixture to a boil on about medium-high to high heat. Then add in gel food coloring if desired and stir with a silicone spatula. Your sugar mixture is ready when the thermometer reaches the hard crack stage or 300 degrees. Turn off stove heat. Carefully spoon out sugar mixture into silicone molds and use the back of a spoon to spread the sugar around the mold. Work quickly as sugar will begin to harden within 15 seconds. Once the molds are all filled, go back and make sure there are no holes in the circle and try to patch them if possible. I have made tea bombs quite a few times and it gets easier with practice.
Be careful not to let too much sugar get above the circle mold as when it breaks off, it can break the hardened shell as well. Place a small skillet on the stove, but do not turn on heat. Fill the semi-circles that you left in the mold with tea bags, flowers, and 1 teaspoon of honey. The teabag might need to be folded a few times depending on the size of the mold. Leave the teabag string outside of the mold. Turn the stove under the skillet on low and let it heat up for a few seconds. Add the empty half circle mold to the skillet and let smooth and heat the rim for a few seconds. Quickly place back onto the sugar circle that is set in the mold with the fillings and carefully secure both sides together. They should stick pretty quickly and harden almost immediately. You now have beautiful herbal honey tea bombs to gift or just enjoy yourself!
