Ingredients

Scale

Tea Base

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tea bag (black tea or chai)

Flavorings

  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

Additions

  • ½–1 cup milk
  • Sweetener (optional, such as sugar, honey, or maple syrup)

Instructions

  1. Boil Water: Bring 1 cup of water to a rolling boil in a pot or kettle.
  2. Steep Tea: Place the tea bag into the hot water and steep for 3 to 5 minutes to extract a rich flavor.
  3. Add Cinnamon: Stir in ½ teaspoon of cinnamon into the steeped tea to infuse warm spice notes.
  4. Add Milk and Heat: Pour in ½ to 1 cup of milk and gently heat the mixture without bringing it to a boil to prevent curdling and maintain smooth texture.
  5. Flavor with Vanilla and Sweeten: Stir in ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract and add sweetener to taste, mixing well to combine all flavors.
  6. Strain and Serve: Strain the tea into a cup to remove the tea bag and any cinnamon sediment, then serve warm for the best comforting experience.

Notes

  • Use full-fat milk for a creamier texture or plant-based milk as a dairy alternative.
  • Adjust cinnamon quantity according to taste for a milder or stronger spice flavor.
  • Sweetener is optional; try natural options like honey or maple syrup for added health benefits.
  • Do not boil the milk to avoid curdling and to preserve a smooth tea consistency.
  • Can be prepared with chai tea bag for spicier, more complex flavor profiles.
