At the same time, rosacea is very individual: hot drinks and strong spices can trigger flushing in some people. That's why this recipe is made in a milder "rosacea-friendly" version . It tastes absolutely delicious. This one is made with less pepper and ginger so as not to trigger redness in rosacea.
