- 1 cup water + more to warm teapot
- 2 teaspoons black tea (or 1 tea bag or 1 tea sachet)
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- ¼ cup half & half
- Since half & half and sugar are being added, you want to make sure the tea is strong and brewed properly with boiling water and steeped for the right amount of time. Weak tea isn't great for milk tea.
- Everyone has a different level of sweet they like in their tea. Start with a teaspoon of sugar first and add more if needed.
- It's a good idea to warm up your teapot with hot water before brewing any kind of tea to keep the water hot during the steeping process. This is an extra step all tea professionals take.
- Even though any tea can be used to make milk tea, bold, robust black tea works best if you're using half & half and brown sugar.
