• With this type of milk tea, oolong tea is often popular. You can also use green tea or black tea, but white tea is too light.
• For a more traditional yet fun taste, you can also try an herbal tea blend. It is especially suitable for flower teas, such as rose tea. If you use herbal tea, add 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of tea leaves.
• If you prefer a stronger tea flavor, you can add tea instead of keeping the tea brewed for longer.
• If you don't have a teapot, you can put the tea in the saucepan when you boil the water, but you should turn off the heat after you put the tea in the saucepan.

Brew tea. Cover the pot and let the tea infuse for 1-5 minutes.

• Green tea should be brewed for about 1 minute, black tea can be brewed for 2-3 minutes. These teas may be more acrid if aged for longer.
• Oolong tea should be kept for 3 minutes for best, but this tea reacts better when brewed for a long time and does not produce the same acrid taste as green tea or black tea.
• Herbal tea needs to be steeped for 5-6 minutes and won't taste acrid if it's accidentally brewed for a little longer.

Slowly pour the milk. Pour more milk when the tea is absorbed, stirring gently each time pouring.

• Do not pour milk at once. This will dilute the tea.
• If possible, you should avoid allowing the milk to be higher than 15.5 degrees Celsius. When the milk is heated too long, the protein in the milk is degraded and the milk starts to smell.

Strain the tea into cups or glasses. Pour tea through the tea filter into the glass.

• If you don't have a tea filter, you can use a sieve or tight mesh to filter it. You need some tea filter to prevent the tea leaves from falling into the glass.

Add sugar or honey and enjoy. Stir the sweetener into the tea as desired. Enjoy tea while still hot. advertisement

Method 2 of 3: Iced milk tea

1. 

   Put the tea bags in a large glass. Pour boiling water over the tea bags in the cup.
   • Black tea is best suited to make iced milk tea prepared this way, but oolong tea is also delicious. Whatever tea you choose, the flavor should be quite strong.
   • If you are using black tea leaves, put the tea in a spherical tea maker or clean nylon leather socks to form a "bag". Use 2 - 4 teaspoons (10 - 20 ml) of tea leaves with this method.

2. 

   
   
   Add condensed milk. Take out the tea packets and pour in condensed milk. Stir until tea and milk are blended.
   • You can change the amount of condensed milk according to your taste.
   • Note that condensed milk is quite sweet, so you don't need to add sugar or other sweeteners after adding the milk.

3. 

   Pour tea on ice and enjoy. Pour the milk tea from the tea cup into the iced glass. Enjoy it now. advertisement

Method 3 of 3: Other teas

1. 

   Make a simple version of milk tea. Make a packet of black tea bags that you like according to the instructions on the tea box. After taking out the tea bag, you can add coffee cream powder and sugar to the tea according to your taste.

2. 

   Make Chinese milk tea. For a taste of traditional Chinese cuisine, you need to boil the tea for 30 minutes for a stronger flavor. Add sweetened condensed milk instead of plain milk after filtering the tea into a glass.

3. 

   Enjoy a glass of apple milk tea. This finely ground fruit tea is prepared by grinding slices of apples, sugar, milk, blended black tea and ice until it forms a smooth mixture.

4. 

   Make bubble tea. Bubble tea is a special type of milk tea that has chewy tapioca balls, also known as Pearl. Tea is usually mixed with cream.
   • Try the almond milk tea for a strange taste. Almond milk tea is a type of pearl milk tea, so tapioca balls are also available. This tea also uses homemade almond milk, but store-bought almond milk is fine.

5. 

   Try a spicy bottle of tea. Masala chai is a drink from India and Pakistan that can be prepared with black tea, milk, honey, vanilla, cloves, cinnamon, and cardamom. You can enjoy the tea hot or cold.
   • Consider making a cup of ginger tea. Ginger tea is a variation of chai tea. Along with a traditional bottle of tea flavor, this tea is mixed with fresh ginger.

6. 

   Make a standard English tea. Although not generally considered to be the typical milk tea, English tea is often enjoyed with milk or cream.
   • Change it up a bit with a cup of vanilla cream tea. Vanilla cream tea is very similar to English style tea, but instead of sugar, you need to add vanilla.

Advice

• If you are using a traditional teapot, rinse the boiling water first to help prevent the tea from cooling while it is brewing. Pour boiling or hot water into the teapot just before brewing the tea. The hot water will warm the teapot before you brew it.
• Use whole milk for a richer taste.
• Use a high quality tea.
