Time For Tea
Chris’s Irish Tea Brack recipe is rich with tradition, tea-soaked fruit, and a little drop of Irish magic.
Dear Ireland,
You’ve always had a way of wrapping the ordinary in something sacred. A quiet loaf on a Sunday table. A steaming cup of tea shared by the fire. A song hummed from memory, not sheet. In every corner of your kitchens and every crumb of your bread, there’s history—soft, steady, and still warm from the oven. We may live far from your fields, but with each recipe passed down, we find our way back.
