Milk

Sweetener

Directions

 

1. MAKE TEA


Bring water to a boil, or if you’re using an electric kettle with a temperature setting, set it to 208°F. The quality of the water makes a difference — use filtered water if possible.

Put tea and hot water into a teapot and steep. Strain tea leaves. Stir in sugar


2. FROTH MILK


To recreate that perfect, cafe-quality steamed milk at home, use an electric milk frother. It heats milk and froths all at once, beautifully.

You can also froth milk using a French press. Heat milk on low on the stovetop and once little bubbles start forming along the sides, take off heat and pour milk into a French press. Pump the French press plunger up and down a few times until milk has doubled in volume.



3. ASSEMBLE DRINK

Into a teacup, pour in the tea then top with the frothed milk.
