Steps
- 1
Add the tea leaves to a sealable container and pour in the vodka.
- 2
Shake the container and let sit for 20-50 minutes. You want a strong tea flavor, much stronger than you would normally would desire for regular tea.
- 3
Strain out the tea from the vodka. The vodka should have a green, tea color.
- 4
Add the milk to a large bowl and pour in the vodka. (It is important you pour the vodka into the milk and not the milk into the vodka!)
- 5
Stir the mixture gently and you will see the milk slightly separating.
- 6
Add the lemon juice bit by bit (~10 ml at the time) until the milk starts to break. When this happens you do not need to add more lemon juice.
- 7
Stir gently and let the curdles form. Stir every couple minutes.
- 8
Once the curdles have formed and the liquid on the top looks clear, let it sit for a couple hours undisturbed to let the curds settle.
- 9
Strain through a sieve, and then through a coffee filter to get rid of all the solids.
- 10
Your vodka should be tea colored and smell faintly of tea.

Note: this recipe probably works with other teas as well. I haven't tried it but it should work in theory.
