Recipe: Tea (Tea)

Intro:

Sweet, milky chai is served several times a day here. Generally it’s available after a meal (never with food) and sometimes between meals. The traditional vessel is a small stainless steel cup, not much larger than a shot glass, which holds enough to last through 5 or 10 minutes of very tiny sips and great lengths of passionate conversation.

Ingredients:

1 liter water

1 pouch milk

1 small bowl sugar

3 heaping teaspoons black tea powder

Directions:

Heat milk and water to near boiling

Add sugar and tea

Stir, cover, and cook for another 5 minutes (don’t boil)

Serve!
