Ingredients
- 2 cups powdered milk
- 1/3 cup turbinado sugar (raw sugar)
- 1 teaspoons ground coriander
- 1 teaspoons ground ginger
- 1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoons ground cardamom
- 1/4 teaspoons ground cloves
- 1/4 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- Ground pepper (optional)
How to Make
-
Step 1: Option 1: combine all the ingredients in a food processor or a coffee grinder. Store in a dry place. Use 1-2 Tbs per cup of strongly brewed black tea.
-
Step 2: Option 2: For an even easier option, substitute a can of sweetened, condensed milk for the powdered milk/turbinado sugar. You may want to thin it with some water or milk so it will blend. Store in the refrigerator. Use 1-2 Tbs per cup of tea.
-
Step 3: Option 3: For personal reasons I stopped using the canned or powdered milk above so I've started just using the spice mix alone and add my cream and sweetener to the cup of tea separately. I will brew a pot of tea and use about 1 tsp of spice to the pot.
-
Note: To fill up a spice jar. 2 Tablespoons of coriander, ginger, cinnamon. 1 Tablespoon ground cardamom. 1.5 teaspoons cloves and nutmeg. I haven't used the pepper yet even though it is traditional
