Serves: 1
Yields: 1 cup
Ingredients
- 1 ceylon tea bag
- boiling water
- 2 tablespoons sweetened condended milk
Directions
- Bring a kettle of water to a full boil.
- Preheat a cup with some of the boiling water; discarding the water after the cup is hot (about 30 seconds).
- Place a tea bag in the hot cup and gently pour a cup of boiling water over it.
- Steep for 7 minutes (the tea needs to be over-steeped to hold up to the viscosity of the sweetened condensed milk).

- Add two heaping tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk to the tea and mix quickly and continuously until well blended.
- Optional: a clean eggshell is sometimes added to the tea while it is steeping to reduce its acidity.
