Preparation
Boil the water with the spices for 2 minutes. Add the tea and simmer for 2 minutes. Add the milk and heat until hot but not boiling. Add sweetener and serve.
You may vary the amounts of milk and sugar according to taste and dosha. Of course, increasing milk and/or sugar can provoke kapha, so take care.
If you use caffeinated tea, the cardamom will help neutralize the effects of the caffeine.
