- A small pinch of cardamom
Instructions

- Add the milk and sugar while the tea is still hot and stir. You may want to increase or decrease the amount to suit your taste.
- Add the pinch of cinnamon and cardamom, stirring again.
- Once the mixture cools to room temperature, pour it into a mason jar or any suitable container.
- Done! This delicious tea concentrate will keep in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
Tips

- If you’re feeling adventurous, add a small amount of freshly chopped ginger for a spicier kick.
