Fresh Milk - 1 cup
Tea - 1.5 tsp heaped
Sugar - 2 tsp(adjust according to your taste)
Cardamom - 2
Ginger - 1/2 inch piece
Method:
- Peel the skin and chop the ginger roughly. Then crush ginger and cardamom together in a hand mortar and pestle. Set aside. Boil milk until its frothy.
- Then add sugar, give a quick stir for the sugar to dissolve. Then add crushed ginger cardamom, tea powder and simmer for 3-5 mins.
- Once it starts to boil and you get the required tea strongness and color, switch it off. Filter using a tea strainer and serve hot.
My Notes:
- I usually use 3 roses tea or sometimes tajmahal. You can use your preferred tea brand.
- You can also add sugar at the final stage after switching it off.
- Adjust tea powder and sugar according to your taste.
- Sometimes I add 2-3 tbsp water as hubby prefers it that way but I love it only with full milk :)
