Another experiment with this tea.
I heated up milk. Then spilled the milk to the cup with tea bag. The milk was quite cold, but still hot enough for steep. I think it has got about 70 °C based on my thermometer. But I am afraid it is measuring all “needle” long, so it is sometimes more because it wasn´t all in water (or milk this time).
I let it steep for quite a long time, maybe 8 minutes was actually correct. Then I even squeeze the bag (I don’t do it) to make all spicy taste go in.
It turned into very interesting colour. It was like eggnog or something. Pale yellow colour of course completely opaque. As aroma it was not really spicy.
But the taste!
It was delicious. Spices spreaded all around the mouth, so sometimes bit mor gingery, then bit more cinnamony, cardamon there… and turmeric making it very nice and interesting.
I think this is how man should prepare this blend. Great idea – to make a “Golden Milk” from it.
