Are you tired of the same old boring milk teas? Ready to embark on a delightful journey of taste and refreshment?

Look no further, as we present to you the Iced Hojicha Milk Tea – a tantalizing twist on the classic milk tea that will leave your taste buds dancing with joy!

Combining the robust flavors of roasted green tea (Hojicha) with the creaminess of milk and a hint of sweetness, this chilled concoction is the ultimate summer refresher. Grab your apron, and let’s dive into this amusing and delicious recipe!

Ingredients

• 2 tbsp of Organic Hojicha tea (or 3 Hojicha tea bags)
• a cup of water
• 2 cups of milk (your choice: dairy, almond, soy, etc.)
• 3 tablespoons of honey or maple syrup (adjust according to your sweetness preference)
• Ice cubes

Preparation 

Step 1: In a saucepan, bring the water to a gentle boil. Add the Hojicha tea leaves (or tea bags) and let them dance in the water for about 2 minutes. We don’t want the tea to get too bitter, just enough to bring out its lovely roasted aroma and flavors.

Step 2: While the Hojicha tea is brewing, take out your milk of choice and pour it into a pitcher. Pop it into the fridge and let it chill like a prima ballerina, getting ready to make a grand entrance in your iced tea.

Step 3: Retrieve the brewed Hojicha tea and strain out the leaves or remove the tea bags. Then, let the honey or maple syrup serenade your taste buds with a sweet melody as you stir it into the tea. Adjust the sweetness to your liking—this is your performance, and you’re the conductor!

Step 4: Now comes the enchanting part – combine the chilled milk and the sweetened Hojicha tea. Watch as they unite and create a beautiful swirl of colors, much like the waltz of a summer sunset. Stir them together gently, like you’re conducting a symphony of flavors.

Step 5: Fill your favorite glass with ice cubes as if you’re preparing a stage for the grandest of ballet performances. Then, pour your Hojicha milk tea into the glass, making sure to fill it to the brim. Don’t be shy – you want all the flavors to take center stage!

Step 6: If you want to add a touch of opulence, top your Iced Hojicha Milk Tea with a dollop of whipped cream as if giving it a standing ovation for its fantastic taste. Sprinkle a pinch of Hojicha powder on top to add a final touch of elegance.

Step 7: It’s showtime! Take a deep breath, and indulge in the refreshing and amusing symphony of flavors in your Iced Hojicha Milk Tea. Let it dance on your palate, bringing joy and delight with every sip. Sit back, relax, and savor the magical performance you’ve created!
