How to Steep Tea in Milk
Water isn’t the only thing tea leaves can be infused in.
Steeping tea leaves directly into dairy products like milk or heavy cream is a way to add flavor to desserts or create unique beverages.
Cold Infusion Instructions
-
Add the tea leaves & milk* to a jar or brewing pitcher that can be covered. Mason jars work well.
- Put it into the refrigerator and allow to infuse for 24 - 48 hours**. The longer the misxute is allowed to infuse the more flavorful it will become.
-
Strain milk/tea mixture through a cullender or strainer into another jar or pitcher.
- Once prepared, the infused milk will be good until the date on the milk used.
TIPS
*For best results, use the suggested tea/water ratio for hot brewing recommended on the teas packaging.
** It will take the tea leaves longer to infuse into the milk than it does water. If cold brewing in water, please refer to our Cold Brew STEAPing Guide.
How To Use
