I think so many people here are confused about the milk tea. Milk tea in UK is black tea + cream. The ones in Thailand, Singapore and Malaysia are black tea+condensed milk. The one in Hong Kong is black tea+evaporated milk. The taste are different too.
I make milktea with two percent milk and extremely sweetened, sugary tea. Don't like hot drinks so both are refridgerated, then mixed together. I'm from the South so the tea hassss to be sweet! 🤠🤠
@@BeatTheBush my family is from India so we've been drinking chai or milk tea my entire life. We normally just use regular milk in the tea for everyday drinking but there are some better ways of making it when my mom is feeling it. We normally just use tea bags but we use real tea on certain occasions
It is a very nice video tho! I have some left over half & half in my fridge and im kinda tired of drinking coffee, so i go on RUclips and this is exactly wut im looking for!🤑
@@kurochan_dat90schick Thank you for clearing it out the complexity of rinsing a tea kettle. I was trying to follow the instructions of the guy and of Derya and something wasn't happening.
Ah, yes. I remember this one from my history books. The day those nasty brits stole all the tea from poor asia... Just held everyone at the tips of their guns as they rooted up and took every single shrub. Vile.
@@attakullakullaoukonunaka4091 He means they stole the tea drinking culture from Asia, which they did. Smart ass, bland humour to complement your bland culture.
Condensed milk is probably the most important ingredient. My milk tea used to taste like water down milk and i was wondering what i did wrongly. After i discovered condensed milk in a trip to Hong Kong, it literally changed my life!!
You need to brew it in the cup properly. Using sugary desert ingredients instead of normal milk is antithetical to the recipe. It's just tea, hot water and fresh milk.
We do have condensed milk. It's not used for a milk tea. You need fresh milk, not milk derivatives or manipulations. Calling condensed milk 'milk' is the equivalent of calling cheese 'milk', or the equivalent of making a tomato pasta sauce out of just tomato ketchup. If you put condensed milk in tea, you've not made 'milk' tea.
He been doing this for 10 years, Yeah me too, when people been doing the same thing so often they just eyeball it saved us time and less thing to clean
=D Like grandma recipes. You eye ball it. Depends on the color of the tea. If you use exact measurements, it may not work for the tea brand, duration of steeping, or concentration of your brand of condensed milk.
All i see are people *complaining* about people *complaining* about brits commenting *complaining* about this video that aren’t even seen in the comments Complaining sounds and looks weird now
The blue flower is actually called blue cornflower. It doesn't have a strong taste or scent. It just adds visual value. Bergamont is a small citrus plant. The distinguished smell of Earl Grey comes from the bergamont oil, that has been added to the tea. I love it! A great tea!
I'll never understand why people use social media to point out other's people faults and criticize every single thing others do or say. You can comment or even clarify something wrong without the need downgrade the other person argument using sarcasm in order to feel superior or self-righteous.
You're pointing out my mistake? Your first comment here literally was a mistake, since when do asians not drink MILK tea? And I drink tea from a tea kettle all the time so I don't know what the fuck you're talking about lmao. Try going to a japanese, korean , or chinese restaurant. I guarantee that if you ask for hot tea they will give you a tea pot with small serving cups. You seem to have no idea what goes on in asia, so I'm not sure why you're speaking about this with so much anger and certainty.
Nala D she sunder the impression that you said you drink it STRAIGHT from the kettle, no cups whatsoever, for some weird reason although you clearly did not state you drank it straight from the kettle without cups
My grandma used to make me black tea with condensed milk when I was a kid. Literally everytime I came to her house, she would always make sure I would get that cup of tea. There was no way I would leave her house without having had one lol. So many fond memories. This video reminds me of her :)
I really liked how much effort you put into describing how EXACTLY to make this tea in the way that you think turns out best. I already knew the basic operation but I've been trying to refine how I make milk tea so that it turns out as delicious as possible. I'll try your recipe--thanks!
I think the thing worth talking about in this video for me is how down to earth. You are using pretty basic/easy to get things as well as explaining like a normal guy. I never once felt like I was in the presence of an expert, but rather a buddy just telling me how he makes tea. It's refreshing to watch something on youtube, like the old days, that is easy to be replicated.
The most technically and philosophically explained video about making a cup of tea I think I will ever come across. Those ten years did not go to waste, man. Respect.
@@hubert06299 yes one may enjoy the music and culture and all but I think using that word is quite rude in this situation but I do see why you have said that. I myself enjoy the music but am not too involved with everything else
The blue stuff in that "French Earl Grey" is not bergamot. Bergamot is a small sour citrus fruit; the yellow bits are the rind of bergamot. The blue things are cornflowers. Technically, that makes it "Lady Grey" tea, but that's a Twining's trademarked name.
Andrew Kelly 😂 me too, been making cups of tea since I was a kid. Kept thinking “it can’t just be a cup of tea?”. The condensed milk was new to me though 🤣. I forget other countries don’t drink tea as much as people in my country. I’m an English breakfast person myself
I drink gallons of milk tea a day, well maybe not, but a lot. I always use whole milk and raw honey and Red Rose black tea. Also, baking soda and vinegar will take the tarter off your glass top stove. Make a paste and scrub in gentle small circles. Don't use heavy abrasives.
@BeatTheBush, I just made it & it was simply easy! My dad added cut up/crushed, strawberries into it non frozen ones. It's fantastic!! Thanks for taking ur time & teaching me/us. It saved us money & since we r on a curfew it helped us A BUNCH. THANK SO MUCH!
@@BeatTheBush, oops. I told dad no strawberries but, he insisted. Sorry I'll make it again, soon w/ my Indigenous Native American sister, & we'll not add strawberries into it.
this looks amazing. Idk why british ppl are constantly complaining about the way he made it because newsflash british people are not the only people who love tea, milk tea from places like china or india tastes a hell lot better.
That's how I make it: take a saucepan, add 1/4 cup water, add black tea (and sugar if you like). Boil. When simmering, add 3/4 cup milk. Boil until soft and creamy. Done. We call it the simplest version of Indian chai
i dont understand the complaints from british people on here, im british and i also drink a lot of tea but my first reaction wasnt "wtf why is he doing it like that?" instead i really want to try and make it this way ESPECIALLY if this is a more traditional way to make it. and if its not then whats the problem in trying it? i mean everyone has their tea different anyway
It's honestly not that different from how we make tea. It's literally how you'd make it if you didn't have modern kettles + bags with the addition of condensed milk.
"Very very low sugar" I mean, that's roughly 2 and a half teaspoons (per tablespoon of condensed milk, that's an average of 10 grams sugar). For me, 3 was normal, 4 was sweet, and 5+ was being yelled at by horrified family.
He didn't say it wasn't sweetened, he said it wasn't very sweet. Something being sweetened just means there's something sweet added to it, it doesn't inherently mean extremely sweet tasting. You can just add a tiny bit of sugar and still call something sweetened.
I'm from Venezuela so us South Americans traditionally drink coffee/latte, like you, it took me a long time to get the exact concentration of milk and sugar. I'm going try your tea recipe. I really enjoyed this video.
RUclips must be a wizard because it seems to read my mind to recommend me this. I haven't spoken out loud to anyone or even to myself, but I did think of experimenting making milk tea with condensed milk after having a bubble tea yesterday. I tried with regular milk several times before, and it never turned out with strong enough flavor for either the tea or the milk. I'll definitely give this a method a try.
I tried this recipe three times whilst adapting some changes to my preferences, I came with the final recipe of 250ml water, 1 Iipton yellow label black tea bag, 15ml condensed milk and around 13g sugar. I didn’t use the same condensed milk because I couldn’t find it at my local supermarket, the one I have includes milk, sugar and a type of condenser, so I guess that changes the final taste as well. I need to say that this recipe is really nice for a break time relax. Thanks for the content!
@@BeatTheBush Honestly, if you are taking this sort of time and preparation, try it on the hob in a saucepan if you haven't. Mix 2:1 water to milk (or whatever ratios you end up liking). Boil, drop to a simmer, add loose tea and brew for as long as you want. Mix in sugar early on too. Strain as you pour it out. Essentially like Chai, without the spices...
I've been looking for a solid recipe that I can easily follow with explanations based on taste and thia is the best video I have found. It was specific, it made sense, and it explained why those choices like ....no wonder everything else tastes weird I wasn't considering the porportions right. Thank you so much for this
Condensed milk + sugar is not a low amount of sugar in my opinion. It maybe is compared to soda or orange juice, but that's already the sweetest stuff you can get and tea is something which is enjoyable without sugar. Still looks delicous!
BeatTheBush out here teaching our society how to wash tea leaves out of a kettle, why they need a strainer for their sink, and reminding them not to microwave cans LOL. Jokes aside, I really enjoyed this video. I, myself, have been making milk tea for maybe 8 years and learned a lot of stuff from testing it out, like you. Found myself nodding when you said milk makes the tea too watery and how too much condensed milk makes it taste thick and weird. Love how concise this video was, but also your voice was easy to listen to! Glad I came across a milk tea master on my recommended videos today.
I put a couple tablespoons of dried milk (Nido), a pinch of salt and maple syrup for sweetness. I add black jasmine tea. Literally tastes like a salted caramel candy absolutely delicious.
I actually watched the whole video and WOW the amount of engagement you put into making this is so pure. Lovely. Thank you for sharing. I'm definitely gonna try this out 💙
Engagement? I have been tweaking this recipe for so long, I'm glad you will try it! Btw, the current method is slightly different as I switched to useful fresh almond milk.
This is a complete game changer: heavy cream! My brewing routine of 12g (3 tbsp) loose tea leaves, 425ml 80℃ hot water, 50g sweetened condensed milk and 40g of heavy/whipping cream, always turns out superb. Tips for best tasting tea, DO NOT use boiling water. Hot water is when it just starts to bubble. This is crucial between floral fresh vs bitter dull brew. The very same concept of coffee brewing applies to tea! Never underestimate trivial things.
The blue flowers are corn flower, you might have seen those on fields. Bergamotte is like a more bitter grapefruit and for earl grey teas, an oil made from the fruits is jused. Corn flowers are used mostly in the french variant of earl grey teas.
I find it astonishing that as of 5/4/18. 105 honey badgers where able to successfully: use the internet, navigate to this video, and up vote this comment.
This is gold. Can someone help me find a video this guy made where he talks about the price of tea he buys and used to buy? I remember watching it but I cannot find it!
Person: this is a very specific amount but idk how much it is *eyeballs the measurement * Me: boy if u dont Person: let's measure to see *ends up being exactly.1 tbsp* Me: .......fluke..... Him: measures again 1 tbsp Me:..........
How close is the taste to the HK stocking milk tea in %? If it's close enough, I will drive 90 minutes to get the ingredients at the Chinese grocery store, thanks! :)
HK Style milk tea houses usually blend their own black teas in their own secret recipe. So yes... some ceylon some other stuff. But the condensed milk and a strong brew will get you very close. But don't drive 90 minutes for this... that sounds crazy.
The blue flowers in Earl Grey are actually cornflowers. Bergamot is a citrus fruit and bergamot oil is infused with the tea leaves to impart the unique flavour and scent.
Ok ok ok now hear me out,, try evaporated milk add it to the tea as it boils,, when it gets to the right shade of black,, even better try flavoring it with a slice of ginger let it boil with the tea.. you can add cardamom and saffron at the end .. it goes well with tea similar to Indian tea.. sugar wise if Im feeling fancy Id start with caramelizing some sugar in a pot just till its light brown add the water melt it the add the tea and spice boil it well then add the milk boil it for as long as I can to make it quite condensed and .. enjoy 👌🏼
Now after you take a sip, Take a break and breath in and out 10 times. Then take two sips and relax to enjoy the warmth as it goes down the throat. As i relax and do the mundane, 5 mins after to take another sip by sip in a row to enjoy more of the aroma and it will be the taste of the tea dominating the milk. Another 2 mins and it will be the other way around, vice versa. Seriously back in the day everything was much simpler unlike today, everything has to be complicated & technical lol. Nevertheless i enjoyed your video, your right & for the comment section is hella funny.
FYI those blue petals come from cornflower and are added for decorative purposes. Bergamot is a citrus fruit, from which essential oil is extracted to flavor earl grey tea (its also used in parfumes, etc).

It's honestly not that different from how we make tea. It's literally how you'd make it if you didn't have modern kettles + bags with the addition of condensed milk.
no brits are complaining
This is a comfort zone. I will come here when I need to see pure people
This video has come up 5 or 6 times in the last year and I have watch the full video every time I opened the video up... it’s weirdly satisfying
Wow! Thank you for watching! =D
"Very very low sugar"
I mean, that's roughly 2 and a half teaspoons (per tablespoon of condensed milk, that's an average of 10 grams sugar). For me, 3 was normal, 4 was sweet, and 5+ was being yelled at by horrified family.
Hahaha! In my house I would get yelled at for more than 2 spoons, now I don't even like sugar in the milk tea.
5:54 "So you can say this condensed milk is not very sweet"
*Sweetened Condensed Milk*
did u not see the word 'this'
Gray Au your crown's fake and u don't own tea culture
Something that’s sweetened doesn’t necessarily taste sweet you inbred carcass of human waste.
He didn't say it wasn't sweetened, he said it wasn't very sweet. Something being sweetened just means there's something sweet added to it, it doesn't inherently mean extremely sweet tasting. You can just add a tiny bit of sugar and still call something sweetened.
I'm from Venezuela so us South Americans traditionally drink coffee/latte, like you, it took me a long time to get the exact concentration of milk and sugar. I'm going try your tea recipe. I really enjoyed this video.
See! Yes! The ratio of all of the things and strength of the tea all factors in. The final drinking temperature also matters a lot too.
I hope things work out in your country soon, it's a terrible situation.
CoolCat Carolena what kinda venezuelan are you? The poor kind of the rich kind that sucks off the country?
what what is happening in Singapore?
I'm from College, coffee is life! But I want to try tea too
RUclips must be a wizard because it seems to read my mind to recommend me this. I haven't spoken out loud to anyone or even to myself, but I did think of experimenting making milk tea with condensed milk after having a bubble tea yesterday. I tried with regular milk several times before, and it never turned out with strong enough flavor for either the tea or the milk. I'll definitely give this a method a try.
Wow, I tried out your tea recipe it was really good, going to start to make my milk tea like this from now on. Well done
Since this video, I have used a homemade almond milk. Perhaps I should redo this video for my latest recipe.
BeatTheBush ooo yeah make it I love this old recipe it will probably taste even better now.
=D
@@BeatTheBush please show us an update making of milk tea, using almond milk. Thanks.
me too! happened to have condensed milk at home. I've been making my assam milk tea like this ever since watching this video.
This is an art-form.
*Me who's been making milk tea for myself every morning for years* : This video looks informative and helpful
Lol
Ditto..making and having tea 3 times a day since 25 years still watching and enjoying it 😂😂tea lovers are as lovely as tea 😂
I tried this recipe three times whilst adapting some changes to my preferences, I came with the final recipe of 250ml water, 1 Iipton yellow label black tea bag, 15ml condensed milk and around 13g sugar. I didn’t use the same condensed milk because I couldn’t find it at my local supermarket, the one I have includes milk, sugar and a type of condenser, so I guess that changes the final taste as well. I need to say that this recipe is really nice for a break time relax. Thanks for the content!
FYI, I tried the yellow label a few times and which country it comes from matters a lot. Look for the Orange Pekoe yellow label next time around.
To get even richer flavor try to boil a fresh milk with tea leaves at the same time 👍🏻
Agreed. More creamy indeed.
Oohh ohhh... good tip!!
@@BeatTheBush Honestly, if you are taking this sort of time and preparation, try it on the hob in a saucepan if you haven't. Mix 2:1 water to milk (or whatever ratios you end up liking). Boil, drop to a simmer, add loose tea and brew for as long as you want. Mix in sugar early on too. Strain as you pour it out.
Essentially like Chai, without the spices...
I've been looking for a solid recipe that I can easily follow with explanations based on taste and thia is the best video I have found. It was specific, it made sense, and it explained why those choices like ....no wonder everything else tastes weird I wasn't considering the porportions right. Thank you so much for this
You appreciated the points I tried to emphasize. You get this video. For that, thank you. =D
Condensed milk + sugar is not a low amount of sugar in my opinion. It maybe is compared to soda or orange juice, but that's already the sweetest stuff you can get and tea is something which is enjoyable without sugar. Still looks delicous!
BeatTheBush out here teaching our society how to wash tea leaves out of a kettle, why they need a strainer for their sink, and reminding them not to microwave cans LOL.
Jokes aside, I really enjoyed this video. I, myself, have been making milk tea for maybe 8 years and learned a lot of stuff from testing it out, like you. Found myself nodding when you said milk makes the tea too watery and how too much condensed milk makes it taste thick and weird. Love how concise this video was, but also your voice was easy to listen to! Glad I came across a milk tea master on my recommended videos today.
If you liked this one. I have an alternate version using almond milk. Interesting that it gives a very familiar creamy texture without using diary.
Nice, that one sounds interesting to me as my mom is lactose-intolerant so I can make that for her!
This man is so pure. I've never been drawn to subscribe so quickly.
I legit do the same, "its uhh... about that much of a spoonful" loved the entire video. Straight to the point
This dude really used his microwave as a timer🤣🤣
Tyler Kheang nah my microwave has a timer on it too. The microwave isn’t actually on
I do that 🙋
I put a couple tablespoons of dried milk (Nido), a pinch of salt and maple syrup for sweetness. I add black jasmine tea. Literally tastes like a salted caramel candy absolutely delicious.
We use regular milk for the tea but trust me, milk tea is like a gift from heaven
Ahh... try boiling the tea in the milk then.
I use the Indian way.
Miss Teak yup Chai ftw
Ishi1XP yes
The blue flowers in Earl Grey are cornflowers, bergamot is a citrus often added as an oil or dried peel. Nice video!!
I actually watched the whole video and WOW the amount of engagement you put into making this is so pure. Lovely. Thank you for sharing. I'm definitely gonna try this out 💙
Engagement? I have been tweaking this recipe for so long, I'm glad you will try it! Btw, the current method is slightly different as I switched to useful fresh almond milk.
This is a complete game changer: heavy cream! My brewing routine of 12g (3 tbsp) loose tea leaves, 425ml 80℃ hot water, 50g sweetened condensed milk and 40g of heavy/whipping cream, always turns out superb. Tips for best tasting tea, DO NOT use boiling water. Hot water is when it just starts to bubble. This is crucial between floral fresh vs bitter dull brew. The very same concept of coffee brewing applies to tea! Never underestimate trivial things.
I usually want videos like this to be straighforward but I actually enjoyed this one and watched til the end without changing the speed to 2x faster 😊
=D Thank you!
Im waiting for him to say, "now I'm using my heart shaped Spoon because I'm so specific when making milk tea." :D
😂😂😂
This is dope. We all have that one piece of our lives that's just perfect!
The blue flowers are corn flower, you might have seen those on fields. Bergamotte is like a more bitter grapefruit and for earl grey teas, an oil made from the fruits is jused. Corn flowers are used mostly in the french variant of earl grey teas.
Upvote if you are honey badger on infinite vacation drinking milk tea
Lol... btw... better use a bit less sugar to get more life out of that infinite vacation.
I find it astonishing that as of 5/4/18. 105 honey badgers where able to successfully: use the internet, navigate to this video, and up vote this comment.
ÑANII Did you just put the punctuation(s) out of the quotations of the last word???????
ÑANII no, u cant read. Smh.
Hes saying that because you upvote reddit, thumbs up youtube xD
Why did i just spend 9 minutes to learn how to make milk tea... anyways it looks so good! Ofc i will give it a try
Me scrolling through the comments trying to find the comments from Brits complaining.
*Edit* I found 1
1 comment is all it takes to get the yanks complaining.
Yeah I only saw one too. But I saw at least 20 people complaining about others complaining.
why is this so reletable lmao
This is gold. Can someone help me find a video this guy made where he talks about the price of tea he buys and used to buy? I remember watching it but I cannot find it!
I thought I did that in this video already. I did make another version that uses almond milk.
Person: this is a very specific amount but idk how much it is *eyeballs the measurement *
Me: boy if u dont
Person: let's measure to see *ends up being exactly.1 tbsp*
Me: .......fluke.....
Him: measures again 1 tbsp
Me:..........
Lmao
With all the craziness going on in the world this video makes me feel at peace.
Love this....and I love that it’s a specific about but with no measurement!!! LOVE IT
Thank you!
Can I use green tea, instead? Or does it has to be black tea?
Idk go for it yolo
Did you just time 5 minutes on a microwave
he's in 3019
This is my second time watching this
=D
"it tastes not bad" nice, exactly what I've been looking for 🔥
filex .C hhhh
=D
lmao
The color of tea with the creamer is so beautiful thats what i've been aiming for in a coffee with cream but rarely succeeded it.
How close is the taste to the HK stocking milk tea in %? If it's close enough, I will drive 90 minutes to get the ingredients at the Chinese grocery store, thanks! :)
Jessie Lee for hk style milk tea u have to use Ceylon black tea
HK Style milk tea houses usually blend their own black teas in their own secret recipe. So yes... some ceylon some other stuff. But the condensed milk and a strong brew will get you very close. But don't drive 90 minutes for this... that sounds crazy.
Thanks guys!
The blue flowers in Earl Grey are actually cornflowers. Bergamot is a citrus fruit and bergamot oil is infused with the tea leaves to impart the unique flavour and scent.
Ok ok ok now hear me out,, try evaporated milk add it to the tea as it boils,, when it gets to the right shade of black,, even better try flavoring it with a slice of ginger let it boil with the tea.. you can add cardamom and saffron at the end .. it goes well with tea similar to Indian tea.. sugar wise if Im feeling fancy Id start with caramelizing some sugar in a pot just till its light brown add the water melt it the add the tea and spice boil it well then add the milk boil it for as long as I can to make it quite condensed and .. enjoy 👌🏼
He can reverse brew the tea n let it boil then follow your steps n let it shimmer that is going to be awesome too سبحان الله
bro this isn't a tea anymore but a meal
Now after you take a sip,
Take a break and breath in and out 10 times.
Then take two sips and relax to enjoy the warmth as it goes down the throat.
As i relax and do the mundane, 5 mins after to take another sip by sip in a row to enjoy more of the aroma and it will be the taste of the tea dominating the milk. Another 2 mins and it will be the other way around, vice versa.
Seriously back in the day everything was much simpler unlike today, everything has to be complicated & technical lol.
Nevertheless i enjoyed your video, your right & for the comment section is hella funny.
The Commitment and Dedication is real 🙌
Me : Enjoying my cuppa tea
* Eventually this vid pops up*
Me : spit that god damn tea and make another one
XD
"The amount of condensed milk I want is very specific....... I don't know how much this is"
I explained it so much because people never read the comments.
The blue leaves in the Earl Grey Tea are actually corn flower petals. Bergamot is a citrus fruit.
I'm gonna make the iced version of this. Thank you.
Don't cool it with ice. Put it in the fridge, otherwise the ice will melt and dilute your drink.
And put boba! Yummm
I only clicked because the thumbnail made me think you put the water in the cup first with no tea bag or milk
I don’t know why I thought he would do it in a giant tea cup lol
FYI those blue petals come from cornflower and are added for decorative purposes. Bergamot is a citrus fruit, from which essential oil is extracted to flavor earl grey tea (its also used in parfumes, etc).
