Ingredients
- 1 cup Full-fat coconut milk
- 1 cup Almond milk (unsweetened)
- 2 teaspoons Loose black tea
- 1 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Coconut sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
In a small pot, bring the water to a boil over medium heat.
Step 2
Add the loose black tea to the boiling water and simmer for 2-3 minutes to allow the tea to steep.
Step 3
Strain the tea into a separate bowl or container to remove the tea leaves.
Step 4
Return the strained tea to the pot and add the coconut milk, almond milk, coconut sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir well to combine.
Step 5
Heat the mixture over low to medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it begins to simmer. Do not let it boil to avoid burning the milk.
Step 6
Remove the pot from the heat and let it cool slightly for 1-2 minutes.
Step 7
To create the signature foam of teh tarik, carefully pour the tea back and forth between two heatproof cups or containers from a height, repeating 5-6 times until a frothy layer forms on the top. Be cautious to avoid spilling or splashing.
Step 8
Serve the Paleo Teh Tarik hot in mugs or glasses and enjoy!
