THE BEST TEA LATTE RECIPE

Steps:

• Bring the water to a boil. Pour the water over the tea and brew for the recommended brewing time. (See package for recommended time. If no instructions are listed, 5 minutes is generally a good amount).
• Meanwhile, steam the milk on the stove top or in the microwave. The milk is ready when tiny bubbles appear around the outer edge of the pan or when it is fragrant and steaming, but not boiling.
• Froth the milk using a milk frother, until tripled in size.
• Discard the tea bags and sweeten the tea to taste. Add the milk, holding back the froth. Spoon however much froth you desire over the tea and serve.

TEA LATTE RECIPE

Steps:

• Make the tea using 1 black tea bag and 1/2 cup water. Allow to steep for several minutes.
• Add the milk and maple syrup to a small saucepan. Heat the milk to 150 degrees Fahrenheit (measure using a thermometer): this is hot with some small bubbles forming around the outside, but not simmering. The exact temperature is helpful for getting the perfect foam (if you don't have a thermometer you can approximate).
• Use a hand frother, whisk, or French press to foam the milk into small, even bubbles. (The French press is our favorite method: Add the scalding milk to the French press and pump using quick, short plunges for 20 seconds until small foamy bubbles occur. Pour into a pitcher and tap it on the counter to break down large bubbles. You'll get best results with 1 cup of milk for two drinks.)
• Pour the tea into a cup. Gently pour the milk and foam into the center of tea.
