1
Boil the Water
In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil over medium-high heat.
2
Add Spices
Once the water is boiling, add the cinnamon stick, cardamom pods, and grated ginger. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 5 minutes to infuse the flavors.
3
Add Tea and Cocoa
Stir in the black tea leaves and cocoa powder. Let the mixture simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
4
Add Milk and Sugar
Reduce the heat to low and add the milk and sugar. Stir well to combine and heat for another 3-5 minutes, being careful not to let it boil over.
5
Strain and Serve
Remove the saucepan from heat. Strain the mixture into cups to remove the solid spices and tea leaves. Add vanilla extract to each cup before serving.
