Notes

  • Use any type of tea you like best.
  • For an extra rich and creamy latte try half and half or even cream.
  • Sweeten with your favorite sweetener or simple syrup.
  • For a stronger latte, use more tea. Steeping tea long will result in bitter tea, but using more tea and the correct steeping time with result in a stronger tea flavor.
