Ingredients
-
5 cups water
-
¼ cup white sugar
-
5 pods star anise
-
1 cinnamon stick
-
4 pods cardamom, crushed
-
8 red rooibos tea bags
-
¾ cup sweetened condensed milk
-
ice
Directions
-
Place water, sugar, star anise, cinnamon stick, and cardamom in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Remove from heat and add tea bags. Let tea steep and cool to room temperature, about 1 hour.
-
Remove tea bags and strain out whole spices; discard. Whisk in condensed milk. Pour into a large pitcher and refrigerate until flavors combine, at least 1 hour.
-
Fill 4 glasses with ice. Serve tea over ice.
Cook's Note:
Substitute orange-flavored black tea for the red rooibos if preferred.
If using loose tea, use 1/2 cup tea leaves instead of 8 to 10 tea bags. In step 2, strain through a coffee filter or cheesecloth set in a fine-mesh sieve.
