Ingredients

Cold brew milk tea

  • 2 tea bags Earl Grey or 2 tablespoon loose Earl Grey
  • 2 cups almond milk vanilla-flavored and unsweetened

Earl Grey ice cubes

  • 1 tea bag Earl Grey or 1 tablespoon loose Earl Grey
  • 1 cup hot water

Earl Grey milk tea

  • 2 cups cold brew milk tea
  • earl grey ice cubes
  • 3 tablespoon brown sugar syrup

Instructions

  • Start by making cold brew milk tea. Fill a jar with almond milk and add Earl Grey tea bags or loose tea. Close the lid and refrigerate overnight, or for 12 to 16 hours.
  • After that time, remove tea bags, or strain cold brew tea if using loose Earl Grey.
  • For the ice cubes, pour one cup of hot water over a bag of Earl Grey, or 1 tablespoon of loose Earl Grey tea. Steep for 5 minutes and remove tea bags, or strain tea if using loose tea leaves.
  • Wait for tea to cool and fill an ice cube tray with it. Store in the freezer until ready to use.
  • Fill 2 tall glasses with about 6 Earl Grey ice cubes each, or enough to fill ⅔ of the glass.
  • Pour cold brew milk tea over the ice cubes, dividing it evenly between glasses. Add 1 and a half tablespoon of brown sugar syrup to each drink, and stir to mix.
  • Enjoy right away!

Notes

You can substitute brown sugar syrup for your favorite sweetener if you can’t consume sugar. You can also have it unsweetened if you like.
Almond milk can be substituted for cashew milk. Oat and coconut milk have a flavor that’s too strong for the Earl Grey to stand out. I never tried with rice milk.
You can buy brown sugar syrup or make your own with this quick recipe.
