DIY milk tea is a much better option in order to cut all the added sugar in half and steer away from the unwanted additives, especially those found in the instant (and flavored) powdered ones.I'll add more concoctions as I experiment and try them. :)

For years I have been searching for a recipe end started experimenting with my own. I was tired of paying tons of money for these drinks when one could easily make it themselves for pennies. The pearls and flavor mixes can be found at most Asian markets. This recipe is basic and works just as well with crushed ice using a blender. You can experiment with other flavors like traditional milk tea or mango.

This is for those times where you don't have milk, but you want to drink milk tea. I'm pretty sure that you can make this.This is the reduced-calorie version ofRoyal Milk Tea.The drink can become lumpy, so stir well. Recipe by Rurika

I often make this milk tea at home. (*^　^*)You can also prepare this the same way with a single tea bag. If you like your milk tea dark, I recommend 2 tea bags.Adjust the amount of sugar to taste. Recipe by Rurika

While I was making milk jam, I got the urge to make milk tea jam.Make this when you have time to spare. You can't leave the pan while this is cooking. When this is simmering, the room will become filled with a wonderful aroma. The jam will thicken when cooled, but at 200 ml it will still be in liquid form. If you have the patience, keep simmering until it's about 180 ml, and the consistency will be perfect. If it's still too thin when cooled, you can return it to the heat and simmer it for longer.

I combined my favourite caramel and milk tea. It's easy to make using just one saucepan.It's quite sweet, so it might be better to reduce the amount of sugar and water? I like very sweet milk tea.If you don't make a rich-coloured caramel, it will just look like usual milk tea, so be careful. Recipe by Izumiuna

I tried recreating a drink that I had in a coffee shop.The flavour will be deeper if you use two tea bags.I recommend making it on the sweet side. Recipe by NAGANO kurume

Yes! The answer to your question, when there is cold-brewed coffee, there is also cold-brewed tea. Very much like cold brewing coffee, the process reduces the tannins from releasing into your tea. In other words, less bitterness and astringent flavor comparing to when brewing coffee or tea hot.I made 2 separate cold-brewed tea: a combination of green tea, lemon and blueberries, green tea and oranges. You can use red tea, earl grey, or a combination of different types of tea. As for the fruits, I would recommend citrus and berries. I am not sure about apples, pears, or stone fruits tho. But I am sure they are worth exploring and experimenting with.If you are intrigued, you can also add in some spices to your preference as well. Cinnamon, ginger, allspice, etc. The possibilities are endless. This just amps up a whole new level of tea-drinking experience! I really hope you will give this recipe a try and start cold brewing. Cheers!

I wanted to come up with an easy to make, spiced drink to keep me warm.The black pepper tends to sink to the bottom, so stir as you drink. Recipe by Jobi

I had some sweet flavoured tea, so I added to a pound cake batter. It took on a wonderful fragrance and tasted delicious, so I uploaded the recipe. This time, I used blueberry flavoured tea. Other flavours are nice and fragrant too - try apple, strawberry, peach, or orange.Make sure you bring the egg to room temperature before using. If it's cold, it won't mix well with the butter and will separate.If you leave the pound cake to rest a few days, it will be even tastier. It will be particularly moist if you wrap it in plastic wrap and leave it for 2 - 3 days.If you don't have flavoured tea, use a little more sugar. Recipe by Puru berry
