Caramel milk tea recipe steps

Cold brew tea bag with milk for 2 hours or more. This step is to reduce the bitterness of the tea and increase the taste of the tea. If you are in a hurry, you can just boil it instead of brewing it.

2. After brewing, the color changes a little bit and the milk already has a tea flavor.

3. Heat the pan and turn to low heat, add rock sugar and let it slowly melt into caramel color. Pay attention to the heat, or the caramel will be bitter if it is overcooked.

4. Still on low heat, pour in the milk. It's okay if the caramel solidifies when it gets cold, it will melt when you heat it slowly. Be careful not to break the tea bag. Cook for about 3-5 minutes and you can serve.

5. Add a small piece of biscuit chocolate to the milk tea to make it taste more layered. Or add coconut fruit or something else. If you think the tea tastes light, you can add more tea bags or steep it for a longer time. You can develop your imagination, and taste is very personal.

What kind of milk should I choose for caramel milk tea?

It is recommended to use whole milk, which has a richer milk flavor. Skim milk feels like drinking water, and if you drink milk tea, you don’t care about the calories, right?

If you are worried about not being able to control the amount of rock sugar, it’s okay to use less. You can add condensed milk or sugar for seasoning later. You can find the ratio that suits you by doing it a few times.

The key to caramel milk tea is actually the cooking of "caramel". Caramel gives milk tea a light caramel aroma, which is the soul of milk tea. I believe everyone knows the difficulty of frying sugar. The fire is not good at all. If the fire is too light, there will be no caramel smell. If the fire is a little heavy, the sugar will be bitter and can't be swallowed.
