Make it a Latte!

What could be better than a heavenly cup of Kelly's Fine Tea?  Well, nothing of course!  Unless you turn that heavenly cup into a luscious latte. 

A tea latte is extra strong tea with hot steamed milk added to it, usually with sugar.  Making your own latte at home only requires a few steps, and no fancy equipment!  Follow these steps to make 2 small, or 1 large latte.

1.  Steam 1/2 cup of milk - Put milk in a pot on stovetop over low heat.  Start whisking and continue to whisk as the milk heats up, but do not let it boil.  Once it is heated through and foamed, remove from heat.

2.  Steep extra strong tea - Use about 3-4 tsp. of loose tea leaves for 1 cup of boiling water.  Steep for the usual time as indicated on the package label.  Pour the steeped tea into your cup and add desired amount of sugar.

3. Mix milk & tea - Add the steamed milk to your cup of tea, give it a little stir and it's ready to enjoy! 

All types of tea can be used to make a latte.  Our Masala Chai and our Dessert Blends make excellent lattes!
