Gyokuro-Milchtee – Das komplette Rezept

Directions

1. In a small saucepan, heat the water until it reaches about 140°F (60°C). Be careful not to let it boil, as boiling water can damage the delicate flavor of Gyokuro tea.

2. Place the Gyokuro green tea leaves in a teapot or a heat-resistant container. Pour the hot water over the tea leaves and let it steep for about 1 to 2 minutes.

3. After steeping, strain the tea leaves to remove them from the liquid. You can use a tea strainer or a fine-mesh sieve for this purpose.

4. If desired, add honey or your preferred sweetener to the tea before you make the gyokuro milk tea. Stir until the sweetener dissolves completely.

5. In a separate saucepan, heat the milk for your gyokuro milk tea until it is hot but not boiling. You can also heat the milk in the microwave if you prefer.

6. For a creamier texture in your gyokuro milk tea, you can froth the milk using a milk frother or by vigorously whisking it, but this is optional

7. Pour the strained Gyokuro tea into a cup, leaving some space at the top. Slowly pour the hot milk into the cup, stirring gently to combine the tea and milk.

8. If you prefer your gyokuro milk tea chilled, you can add ice cubes to the cup. Stir gently to cool down the tea further and enjoy the refreshing cold version.

9. The Gyokuro Milk Tea is now ready to be served! Sip and savor the unique flavors of the Gyokuro green tea combined with the creamy richness of the milk.
