A Note for my Low Histamine Readers
I have made every effort to pick recipes that are suitable for a low histamine diet, but please note that some have additional, optional, ingredients that are higher histamine such as alcohol. I would suggest not to include those ingredients if making the drink.
There are also some ingredients, such as salep, where the histamine level is not given on the SIGHI list. Please be aware of personal sensitivities and, as always, this post does not constitute medical or dietetic advice in any way.
I'm always in the kitchen, so come join me on Instagram, Facebook and Pinterest to be the first to hear of new recipes!
