Step by Step Method
Step 1
Bring the water, tea, sugar and spices to a gentle boil. Depending on preference and strength required determine the time for which you boil the tea.
Step 2
It is preferred to boil it for about 5-10 minutes. If you are looking for a milder tea you can add the tea after the first boil.
Step 3
Add milk and boil for another 5 minutes. Strain and serve hot with Indian biscuits or biscotti.
NOTE: Some people prefer way more milky tea than what is presented in this recipe. They use equal proportions of water and milk. Some even use more milk than water. More milk leads to milder tea so the choice is yours.
