Crushed Red Pepper Tea

Ingredients:

1-2 packets of crushed red pepper (like you get with pizza)
1-2 little creamer buckets (optional)
honey (optional)
hot water

Directions:
Steep the crushed red peppers in the hot water. using a reusable tea bag or coffee strainer helps... unless you like your tea "pulpy". add honey to sweeten if you'd like. also, if you drink the tea straight, the spiciness will stay with you. however, if you add the creamer, the tea is still spicy, but it doesn't bond with your mouth/throat as much. i recommend 1 red pepper packet to one "normal" mug of hot water. ideally 1:1 pepper packet to creamer bucket as well.
