Ingredients
\n4\u00a0tablespoon\u00a0white sugar\u00a050 g
\n4\u00a0cups\u00a0hot water
\n2\u00a0tablespoon\u00a0loose black tea\u00a0or 3 tea bags, like lipton red label orenglish breakfast
\n6\u00a0pods\u00a0whole cardamom
\n3\u00a0whole cloves
\npinch\u00a0saffron threads (like 5-6 threads)
\n3\u00a0slices of whole ginger root, or pinch of ginger powder\u00a0optional
\n2\/3\u00a0cup\u00a0evaporated milk\u00a0170g
\nInstructions
\nIn a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the sugar. Let the sugar melt and caramelize without stirring or disturbing it. Once it has turned a golden caramel, slowly stream in the hot water. (If some parts of the sugar clump and harden, don’t worry they’ll melt as the water boils).
\nAdd the tea, the cardamom, cloves, saffron, and ginger. Boil for 5-7 minutes or so until spices are fragrant, then add the evaporated milk.
\nLower the heat slightly until tea is at a steady, low simmer. Simmer for 8-10 minutes until tea thickens slightly.
\nTransfer the tea to a tea pot, using a strainer while pouring so you can separate the tea leaves and spices.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
