i'm having it right now,its fragrant,hot and sweet and i love it.Normally i have it in winter on very cold days,its not winter here though but i still love to have it sometimes,specially when kids r asleep and i can have some time by myself and log in on DC
CINNAMON CARDAMOM TEA(SWEET MILK TEA):
2/3 c water
A little less than 1/2 a c of milk(2% is ok but whole is better for the traditional rich taste).
1 medium stick of cinnamon
2 cardamom pods
1/2(not heaping)tsp Lipton tea
a pinch of salt
Sugar(according to taste)
a couple of sprinkles of cinnamon powder
put water in a pan,add cinnamon and cardamom pods(open them up and put both seeds and pods in),let the water boil on low heat,so the flavors are fully released.When it comes to a boil,after one minute,add tea.Then add salt and milk and as much sugar as u like.For me its one tsp.Let the tea cook on low heat for a couple minutes,until the color turns to a light brown peachish.Remove from heat,strain and pour into your favorite cup.Garnish with some cinnamon powder.Enjoy!
