Cuisine: American
Calories:
- 6 cups water
- ½ cup sugar, see notes
- 2 3-inch cinnamon sticks
- 4 star anise
- 2 inches fresh ginger, peeled
- 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
- 1 teaspoon coriander seeds
- 10 whole cloves
- 2 teaspoon cardamon seeds
- 8 teabags black tea
- milk, see notes
Combine the water, sugar, and spices in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat.
Bring to a boil, and allow the mixture to simmer for 10 minutes.
Turn the heat off and add the teabags to the saucepan. Allow the tea to steep for 20 minutes. Remove the tea bags and allow the tea to cool completely.
In whatever proportions you desire, pour the cooled tea over ice and top with milk.
Notes:
- You can increase or decrease the amount of sugar to suit your tastes. I've used both brown and white granulated sugar with success.
- I have used cows milk and almond milk. I can't speak to how these iced lattes turn out when using another kind.
