  • Rose Beet Root Latte (Kit)

Directions

  1. To a small saucepot (6-inch) add milk, tea, cardamom, and sugar. Stir frequently over medium-low heat to gently warm mixture. Do not allow to simmer or boil. Frequent stirring will prevent milk solids from settling and burning on bottom of pot.
  2. When mixture is warm, turn off heat and cover. Steep for 3 minutes. Uncover and strain infusion into a 16-ounce glass container* (see note). Discard tea leaves and cardamom. Add beet root powder, vanilla, and salt; aerate mixture to desired volume with a milk frother. Transfer to a mug and enjoy warm.
  3. To serve cold, refrigerate until chilled. Aerate with a milk frother, if desired. Pour over ice, or – enjoy without ice as a chilled milk tea (recommended).
