Method: 1. Boil 1 cup of water with 2tsp of tea leaves. 2. Once well boiled, pour in the cup of milk into the same. 3. Add grated ginger/cardamom/masala powder(if using) at this point and stir the mixture once in a while. 4. Once this mixture boils and starts frothing switch off the gas and remove from flame. 5.

Tips on making tea
Mythili Rangarajan
For 1 cup tea, adding 2 tsp of tea leaves would spoil your liver over a period of time.Also tea leaves/powder should be added only after the water starts to boil & tea should not be boiled for more than a few seconds,thenshould be covered with a lid for 1 full minute before adding milk,masalas to the decoction.This would give the tea its natural flavour.Also please remember to take such masala tea only for the noon cuppa not for your early morning cup which should avoid masalas except tulsi leaves or spearmint leaves which work to strengthen your immunity. Please also take care to sip your morning tea only after drinking at least two tall glasses of water & not on an empty stomach.We normally take 2 Marie biscuits with our morning tea to ensure against any form of acidity.
