Step-by-Step Instructions

1. 1.Prepare the Water and Tea Powder

   Pour 1½ tumblers of water into a saucepan and place it on the stove. Allow the water to heat up until it's warm, but not yet boiling.

2. 2.Add Tea Powder

   Once the water is warm, add 3 teaspoons of tea powder. Let it come to a boil, allowing the tea powder to infuse and change color.

3. 3.Add Cardamom for Flavor

   As the tea powder starts to boil in the water, crush 3 green cardamoms and add them to the boiling tea mixture. Continue to boil until the flavors are well combined.

4. 4.Incorporate Milk

   Immediately after the tea powder and cardamom have come to their first boil in the water, add 1/2 litre of milk to the saucepan. Stir gently.

5. 5.Add Sugar and Finish Boiling

   Once the milk and tea mixture starts to come to a boil, add 6 teaspoons of sugar (adjust to your preference). Stir to dissolve the sugar. As soon as the tea comes to a full boil, turn off the flame immediately to prevent over-boiling.

6. 6.Strain and Serve

   Strain the prepared tea through a tea strainer into a serving pot or directly into glasses. Aerate the tea by pouring it from a height between two glasses to create a frothy top. Serve hot.
