Here’s how:

2. Brew it for 5 minutes to make the tea full of flavors and aroma.
3. Add drops of honey, simple syrup, or vanilla syrup to add some sweetness to your tea and stir to mix it well.
4. Meanwhile, pour full cream milk into a frother (we preferred full cream milk to create a nice creamy milk foam). You can decide how foamy your milk is, we liked it to be really foamy.
5. Pour your frothed milk carefully, you can use a spoon (don’t use metal spoon to scoop the foam and place it on top of your tea nicely.
6. Sprinkle some cinnamon, chocolate powder, or brown sugar on top of your foam to give it a photo-ready tea!
