- 1 stick Cinnamon stick
- 3 cups Water
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 2 teaspoons Erythritol or monk fruit sweetener (optional, for added sweetness)

Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine the black tea leaves, star anise, cardamom pods, cloves, cinnamon stick, and water.
Step 2
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.
Step 3
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the tea steep for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Step 4
Strain the tea mixture through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a heat-safe bowl or pitcher to remove the tea leaves and spices.
Step 5
Stir in the unsweetened almond milk. Taste the tea and, if desired, add erythritol or monk fruit sweetener to enhance the sweetness without adding sugar.
Step 6
Allow the tea to cool slightly, then pour over a glass filled with ice cubes for a refreshing iced version. Alternatively, serve warm by reheating gently on the stove.
