Smoked tea caramels
Tea
Why did I pick this recipe to be remembered for? When I was a kid one of the best things about Christmas was the caramels my mom would make. She would cut them into the tiniest pieces, and we kids would help her to wrap them. Many never made it into the wrapping paper. She still makes them to this day, and every year sends them out to all of her kids. Two Christmases ago I tried my hand at making salted caramels. They came out a bit too hard, but tasted delicious. Last Christmas I went on a huge caramel making extravaganza and really played with different flavor profiles. These caramels are my favorite of the many iterations I tried. I'd like to think I'm keeping a tradition alive in my own fashion, though I've veered away from my Mom's recipe. <br /> <br />These caramels are a good representation of me—a good balance of sweet and salty, a little bit fickle to make, and just unusual enough to be interesting! - hardlikearmour
