AuthorPriyanka SivaramakrishnanDifficultyBeginnerMilk tea flavoured with aromatic spices.
⅓ cup Milk
4 cups Water
4 tsp Tea powder
2 Cardamon pods
4 Peppercorns
5 Cloves
Sugar to taste
1
In a mortar pestle crush cardamom, pepper, and cloves and keep them aside.
2
In a pan, bring the water to boil. Add the tea powder and the spice mix prepared. Don’t forget to watch out for the gorgeous deep colour seeping through the water.
3
Take it off the heat after it comes to a rolling boil and keep it aside for few minutes. The tea powder normally sinks to the bottom making it easier to strain it.
4
Strain and pour the decoction into four cups. Add milk and sugar to taste.
