A delightful experience of making Kashmiri Pink Tea, or Gulabi Chai, with a creamy texture and a hint of saffron.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 tablespoons green tea leaves
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1/4 cup sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon cardamom powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon powder
  • A pinch of saffron strands
  • Chopped nuts (e.g., pistachios or almonds) for garnish

Instructions

  1. Boil Water and Prepare Tea Leaves: In a pot, bring the 2 cups of water to a rolling boil. Add the green tea leaves and the baking soda.
  2. Simmer for Deep Color: Stir and reduce the heat to simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the liquid to reduce by half and develop a deep red hue.
  3. Sweeten and Add Milk: Add sugar and mix. Slowly pour in the milk while whisking continuously until the color shifts to pink.
  4. Spice it Up: Add the cardamom, cinnamon, and saffron, whisking until frothy.
  5. Strain, Garnish, and Serve: Strain into cups, garnish with chopped nuts, and serve hot.

Notes

Adjust sweetness according to taste. For a vegan version, substitute milk with almond or oat milk.
