Make your tea time creamy and sweet with milk tea. Super simple and delicious, my milk tea recipe is made special with half and a half and brown sugar. Milk Tea What is milk tea? In it’s most basic form, it’s tea with milk. That’s it. Oh, but wait, there’s more. Sure, you’ve got tea with a splash of milk but milk tea comes in a lot of different forms. When you add milk to an Earl Grey or English Breakfast, you’re drinking milk tea. Instead of cold milk, add frothed warm milk and you’ve got yourself a tea latte, which is milk tea. Add some boba balls to your milk tea and you’ve got a boba or bubble tea. Get some spices and black tea and you’ve got chai, an Indian version of milk tea. There’s also the popular Hong Kong-style milk tea which is made with evaporated or condensed milk. And finally, we have my version which is made with half & half and brown sugar. Smooth, sweet and creamy, just as milk tea should be. To Make This Milk Tea Assam black tea You can also use ...

Herbal teas are a penchant of mine and this winter I’ve been drinking a lot of this Cinnamon Rose tea, always with a splash of coconut milk and honey! It’s comforting and warming and I especially like a cup at night after the kids have gone to bed. I’ve used ground cinnamon in this recipe as it is easier to use for single servings, but go ahead and use cinnamon sticks, if you like. Especially if you are brewing up a large batch. If you do use the ground cinnamon, you may find it beneficial to strain the tea through a nut milk bag or cloth before drinking to keep the finer granules out. CINNAMON ROSE TEA + HONEY & MILK Serves: one 8 ounce serving INGREDIENTS ¼ teaspoon(heaping) Ground Cinnamon 1 Cardamom Pod, crushe ⅛ teaspoon Vanilla Bean Powder ½ teaspoon Dried Rose Petals, crushed ¼ teaspoon Dried Chamomile Flowers 8 ounces water, heated to steaming 1 teaspoon Raw Honey 2 tablespoons desired Milk(I like a mix of Coconut & Almond) ...

#1: Grab the vegetable peeler and an orange and let’s get started.  Hold the orange firmly in one hand and, with the other hand, cut away the orange peel (the very outer, orange skin of the orange).  If you get a little of the white peel, the pith (remind anyone of Ethel Thayer?) it isn’t a big deal. #2: “Muddling”.  All it means, in this instance, is to mash an orange slice into the tea.  Right before serving the tea, place one half of an orange slice in the bottom of each glass and muddle, or mash, the orange to release the juice and oils.  Since I don’t own a muddler, I use the rounded end of my wooden spoon.  Muddle with slight force; just a couple of pushes and twists should be enough. Orange Brown Sugar Sweet Tea A delicious blend of sweet tea and fresh oranges.

 pic courtesy - COOK NOURISH BLISS INGREDIENTS: 1 earl grey tea bag ¾ cup boiling water ¾ cup milk ½ to 1 tablespoon vanilla syrup, depending on desired sweetness* sprinkle of cinnamon DIRECTIONS: Add the tea bag to a mug and pour in the boiling water. Let steep for about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the tea bag. Meanwhile, add the milk to a small saucepan set over medium heat. Heat until just steaming (do not let the milk boil). Alternatively, you can heat the milk in the microwave. Add the milk to the mug and stir in the vanilla syrup. Top with a sprinkle of cinnamon and enjoy. If desired, you can whisk the steamed milk until very frothy before pouring it into the mug (or use a milk frother). I just prefer these lattes without the foam. *If you do not have vanilla syrup, you can substitute a teaspoon or so of regular granulated sugar and a splash of vanilla extract. Adjust the quantities to your own taste. Source - Cook Nourish Bliss ...
