A fragrant, gently spiced tea blend combining jaggery, milk powder, black tea, cardamom, ginger, and cinnamon. Stir it into hot water for a quick, creamy cup with warm sweetness.

Steps

  1. Make sure a small bowl, spoon, and storage jar are completely dry.
  2. Combine the jaggery, milk powder, black tea, cardamom, ginger, and cinnamon in the bowl. Mix thoroughly, breaking up any clumps.
  3. To make one cup, add 2 tablespoons of the premix to 200 ml hot water in a small saucepan.
  4. Bring to a brief simmer, stirring until dissolved, then strain into a cup if desired. Serve hot.

Tips for Instant Jaggery Tea Premix

  • A fine-mesh sieve makes the finished cup smoother, especially if the tea powder is coarse.
  • The dry blend should look evenly tan-brown with no visible streaks of milk powder.
  • For a larger batch, multiply the dry ingredients while keeping their proportions unchanged.

Storage

Store the dry premix in a clean, airtight jar in a cool, dry cupboard and use within 1 month for best flavor. Discard it if moisture gets into the jar or the blend develops an unusual smell.

Frequently asked questions

How much premix should I use for a stronger cup?

Start with 2 tablespoons per 200 ml water; add a little more premix next time if you prefer a sweeter, creamier, or more tea-forward cup.

Do I need to strain the tea?

Not necessarily. Straining gives a smoother drink, while leaving it unstrained may produce a slightly gritty texture from the tea powder.

Can I prepare several cups at once?

Yes. Simmer the desired number of portions together, stirring well so the jaggery and milk powder dissolve evenly.
