Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Black tea leaves (strong, loose-leaf)
- 500 milliliters Water
- 4 tablespoons Unsweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon Stevia or erythritol (optional, for natural sweetness)
Instructions
1. In a saucepan, bring 500 milliliters of water to a gentle boil over medium heat.
2. Add 2 tablespoons of black tea leaves to the water and let them steep for 3-5 minutes, depending on your desired tea strength.
3. Strain the brewed tea into another saucepan or a heat-resistant jug to remove the tea leaves.
4. Stir in 4 tablespoons of unsweetened condensed milk until fully combined. If you'd like a touch of natural sweetness, add 1 teaspoon of stevia or erythritol at this stage and stir well.
5. To create the signature 'pulled' effect, pour the tea from one vessel to another from a moderate height (about 12-18 inches) to create frothy layers. Repeat this process 4-5 times, being careful to avoid spilling or burning yourself.
6. Once the tea is well-mixed and frothy, pour it into serving glasses or cups.
7. Serve warm and enjoy your rich and creamy Sugar-Free Teh Tarik!
