Indian Spiced Tea

It’s a cold morning, the whether has been bad lately, some of you may be suffering a cold, I have a sore throat. I am so addicted to coffee, I love coffee so much that if  there was a coffee perfume I would buy one, coffee has got me so obsessed that I get its aroma  from a distance even when its not anywhere close. But….its gotten me shaky and clumsy at this point so what do? I turn to

Indian spiced tea 

What do I need? I need… 

•  2.5 cups of fresh water and 1.25 cups of Milk (luke warm would be fantastic)
• Spices (2 Cloves, 2 brown Cardamom ( I like to open it up), 4 Black Pepper corns,1 Cinnamon Stick)
• 2 tsp Tea Leaves (I love strong tea but you can put as desired)
• Sugar  as desired …do not forget to have a little sugar now so when you clock 60 years you can still have a little.

 Remember the water to milk ratio you need is 2:1 so you can do the maths for any amount

 How do I go about making my tea…

• Place the water, and spices in a saucepan and bring to boil.
• Stir in the tea leaves and continue to cook over a moderate heat for 2 minutes.
• Add the milk and sugar and boil, remove from the heat.
• Strain and serve hot

Anytime is tea time so you can have this in the morning, afternoon and I love it most before bedtime.
