List of Ingredients
3 cups water
6 cardamom pods
6 whole cloves
1 - 3" cinnamon stick
3-4 teabags
2-3 cups cream
sugar to taste
Recipe
Put the water, cardamom, cloves, and cinnamon stick into a
medium sized saucepan. Bring water to boil, then simmer the
spices for about 20-30 minutes. Lift out spices with small
sieve or slotted spoon. Add teabags, and simmer for 3-5
minutes (or longer, if you like really strong tea).
Remove teabags. Add cream slowly until the tea is as
'light' as you like, then heat it until just before it will
boil. Serve immediately, each person sweetening to his/her
taste. (Some folks add the sugar with the teabags- about
1/3 cup, but as we have a family just full of diabetics,
sugar/sweetener is added individually to the cup to taste)
