Hot Apple Pie drink

Our West Coast Spring might have come a little early but we still get a lot of rain. Today was a wet one,  I have been precooking peeled apples and asian pears lately for a warm soothing treat.  I decided to add the cooked fruit into my blended hot tea for a thicker consistency and fiber. This warm and cozy drink was inspired by apple pie now that I am slowly reintroducing apples back into my low FODMAP diet.

  1. this sounds delicious - I will be trying it with home made cider instead of water, and some decaf chai tea or an apple cinnamon herbal tea. I'm not big on ginger. Can't wait to try it.
