Taste It Tuesday: Homemade Milk Tea

It is that limbo once again between the summer and rainy season. It rains sporadically making the weather hotter and more humid. Ugh!

What better way to beat this moody weather than a tall glass of cold milk tea!

But a P150 price tag makes it a little less enticing. So, I decided to make my own.


Here's the process I used: (it's fairly easy!)

1. In a pan, boil 1/2 cup of water with 2 teabags. I used Lipton Peppermint Herbal Infusion. Add 1 tablespoon of sugar to taste.
2. Once it came to a boil, pour it to a tall glass half full with water.
3. Add another 1/2 cup to the pan with the teabags and heat until boiling. This is to ensure that you have extracted all the infusion.
4. Pour it to the glass and add ice cubes. You can also put in inside the freezer for a few minutes to make sure it is extra cold.

Here is my final product:



Paired with pork adobo and 2 cups of rice, perfect dinner!

Maybe I can experiment with flavors too using flavored teas! Oh, oh and I can also try making my own pearls!

Definitely excited for the next Taste It Tuesday!
