1/3 C. sugar

1 tsp. ground ginger

8 cardamom pods, hulled and seed crushed (see notes), or 1/4 tsp. ground cardamom

8 Assam or orange pekoe tea bags or 3 T. tea leaves

 

In a 3- to 4-quart pan over medium-high heat, combine milk, 1 quart water, sugar, ginger, and cardamom seed. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Add tea and simmer, stirring gently, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove pan from heat, cover, and let stand until tea is a dark reddish brown color, about 1 minute. Pour through a fine strainer into a hot teapot.
