Ingredients

Scale

Liquid Ingredients

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup milk

Flavorings

  • 1 tablespoon cherry syrup
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla syrup
  • 1 teaspoon honey (optional)

Tea

  • 1 tea bag black tea

Toppings

  • Whipped cream (optional)

Instructions

  1. Boil Water: Start by boiling 1 cup of water in a small saucepan or kettle until it reaches a rolling boil.
  2. Prepare Mug: Carefully pour the boiling water into a heat-resistant mug ready for steeping tea.
  3. Steep Tea: Place the black tea bag into the mug with the hot water and allow it to steep for 3 to 5 minutes depending on your preferred tea strength.
  4. Heat Milk: While the tea steeps, warm 1 cup of milk in a separate saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent scalding or skin formation.
  5. Froth Milk: Once warm, whisk the milk gently to create a frothy texture without overheating it to maintain a smooth consistency.
  6. Remove Tea Bag: After steeping, remove and discard the tea bag from the mug.
  7. Combine Milk and Tea: Pour the warm, frothed milk into the mug with the steeped tea.
  8. Add Cherry Syrup: Stir in 1 tablespoon of cherry syrup gently to blend the fruity sweetness into the latte.
  9. Mix in Vanilla Syrup: Add 1 tablespoon of vanilla syrup and stir again to fully combine the flavors.
  10. Optional Sweetening: If desired, mix in 1 teaspoon of honey to enhance the sweetness of the latte.
  11. Top with Whipped Cream: Finish by adding a generous swirl of whipped cream on top for creaminess and indulgence.
  12. Serve: Serve your cherry vanilla tea latte immediately and enjoy the warm, delightful flavors.

Notes

  • You can adjust the steeping time for a stronger or milder tea flavor.
  • Use your choice of milk—dairy or plant-based—for a vegan-friendly option.
  • Cherry and vanilla syrup quantities can be tweaked to match sweetness and flavor preferences.
  • Whipped cream topping is optional but adds a luxurious touch.
  • Honey is optional; you can substitute with other sweeteners or omit entirely.
