Tea kissel
Description
The drink is quick and easy to prepare. This kissel can be made using either black or green tea. You can use any juice, but it's best to choose a tart one or omit it altogether, replacing it with spices. You can use any starch, but keep in mind that it will affect the drink's thickness. When using cornstarch according to this recipe, the kissel turns out to be of medium consistency. The drink is ready to serve.
