👩‍🍳 How to make Milk Tea Assam Style

Double-boil method (8 mins, high heat): Boil water. Add tea, boil 1 minute. Add milk. Bring to a vigorous boil watching carefully — Assam tea foams up quickly. Boil together 2 minutes for a full-bodied, creamy cup. Strain and sweeten. The final colour should be a rich mahogany-orange, not pale.

📖 Cultural notes

Assam produces some of the world's most robust tea — the high rainfall and flat terrain of the Brahmaputra valley create a malty, full-bodied leaf that is prized globally and forms the base of most commercial breakfast tea blends. ---
