How to Make 5 Spice Tea
- In a small saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a rolling boil.
- Add 2 teaspoons of loose leaf black tea (or 2 tea bags) to the boiling water. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 10 minutes.
- While the tea simmers, heat 1/2 cup of milk in a microwave-safe container until steaming (approximately 1-2 minutes).
- Remove the tea from heat. Stir in 1 teaspoon of 5-spice powder.
- Add the warmed milk to the tea mixture and stir well to combine.
- Remove any tea leaves or tea bags by straining the tea through a fine-mesh sieve into your favorite mug(s).
- For iced tea, refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Serve hot or chilled and sweeten to your liking with your chosen sweetener.
