Homemade Tea Lattes
Cozy tea lattes you can make at home.
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup water
- 1-2 tea bags, or 1-2 teaspoons loose leaf tea
- 1/3 cup whole or 2% milk
- 1-2 teaspoons sweetener or simple syrup (optional)
Instructions
- Bring the water to a boil. Pour the water over the tea and brew for the recommended brewing time.
- Meanwhile, steam the milk on the stove top or in the microwave. The milk is ready when tiny bubbles appear around the outer edge of the pan or when it is fragrant and steaming, but not boiling.
- Froth the milk using a milk frother, until tripled in size.
- Discard the tea bags and sweeten the tea to taste. Add the milk, holding back the froth. Spoon however much froth you desire over the tea and serve.
