Method

Prepare Tea Base

  1. 1

    Boil Water

    In a saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil over medium heat.

    Once the water is boiling, add 2 tablespoons of loose leaf tea or 2 tea bags. Remove from heat and let steep for 5-7 minutes.

    Heat Milk

    In a separate saucepan, heat 1 cup of milk over medium heat until hot but not boiling.

    Froth Milk

    Use a milk frother, whisk, or blender to froth the heated milk until it's creamy and has doubled in volume.

  3. 6

    Add Sweetener and Vanilla

    Stir in 1 tablespoon of sweetener and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract into the frothed milk.

Assemble Tea Latte
