  7. [1] This is a simple version made with the basic ingredients listed. I used Earl Grey tea.
  8. [2] For this version I used caramel flavored tea. I wanted to give it a milky flavor, so for the ◎ ingredients, I used 60 g of cake flour, 20 g of skim milk powder, 20 g cornstarch, and 1/2 of baking powder (for 6 cupcakes). I used walnuts, hazelnuts and pistachios as topping. This is the version I used for the step by step photos.

  10. [4] This is a chamomile tea version (I made 3 cupcakes). I used 40 g of unsalted butter and omitted the almond flour. 4 g of chamomile tea, the grated peel from 1/4 a lemon, and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice were added to the basic ingredients.
  11. After adding the eggs in Step 3, add the chamomile tea leaves → grated lemon peel → lemon juice in that order, then proceed to the next step.
