Ingredients

Hojicha Tea

  • 1 1/3 cup water
  • 2 teaspoons hojicha
  • 2 teaspoons brown sugar

Vanilla Cream Froth

Instructions

  • Boil water.
    Boil water on the stovetop or if using an electric kettle with a temperature setting set it to 208°F.
  • Combine tea and hot water in a teapot.
    Use a teapot with a strainer or infuser to make it easier to make without a mess.
  • Cover teapot and steep for 5 minutes.
  • Strain tea leaves and pour hot tea into a cup. Stir in brown sugar until completely dissolved.
    Set aside.
  • Lightly whip heavy cream, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract.
    Whip using a handheld milk frother for about 10-15 seconds. Once it has thickened, stop whisking. Don't overwhip. The lightly whipped cream should be pourable.
  • Pour cream froth into cup with tea.

Notes

If you overwhipped the cream froth, just add a little more heavy cream (one teaspoon at a time) and stir it in using a spoon.
