SUGAR-FREE CHAI LATTE

Steps:

• In a small pot, place the cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, and peppercorns. Toast them over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes.
• Add the milk, ginger, tea, and star anise. Lower the heat and let it sit for about 3 to 4 minutes, avoid boiling the milk.
• Remove from heat, cover the pot with its lid and let it sit for about 10 minutes.
• Strain the latte through a fine-mesh strainer directly into a glass, leaving a 1-inch space from the rim.
• Strain about 1 inch of milk into a tall glass, using the milk frother to make some foam.
• Top the first glass with milk froth, add cinnamon powder on top, together with star anise as decoration.
