Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons or bags black tea leaves or bags
- 500 milliliters boiling water
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 120 milliliters coconut milk
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup ice cubes
Instructions
Boil 500 milliliters of water in a kettle or saucepan.
Place the black tea leaves or bags in a heatproof container and pour the boiling water over them. Let the tea steep for 5-7 minutes for a strong brew.
Remove the tea bags or strain out the leaves once the tea has steeped to your desired strength.
Add 1 tablespoon of brown sugar to the hot tea and stir until fully dissolved.
Let the tea cool to room temperature, or refrigerate it for about 10-15 minutes to speed up the process.
While the tea is cooling, mix 120 milliliters of coconut milk with 0.5 teaspoon of vanilla extract in a separate container.
Once the tea is cool, fill two glasses with ice cubes.
Pour the cooled tea over the ice cubes, filling each glass halfway.
Top each glass with the coconut milk mixture, dividing it equally between the two glasses.
Stir gently to combine the tea and milk, then serve immediately.
