Tonic
Tea
For Tonic Tea, the tea is brewed with milk instead of
water. Fresh milk is preferred for Tonic Tea instead of
powdered milk. Mixing with a whisk is the best way to
ensure that your result turns out fresh and hot. Re-heating
is not possible because of the egg content.

Reserve a cupful of the milk. Heat
the rest to just below boiling point and pour it
over the tea. Allow the tea to brew for 3 –
4 minutes, and then strain off. Beat the egg yolks
and honey until creamy, then continue beating while
adding the reserved milk. Finally add the tea mixture
gradually, beating with a hand held electric mixer
for best results, and serve hot in glasses. |
