Directions
Somali Tea, I really like this recipe and it’s authentic It comes from my mother-in-law who is from Somalia Very aromatic and relaxing tea , used 4c water & 4 spoons of black tea leaves used fresh ginger I only used 4TB sugar & that was plenty sweet enough for me – I can’t imagine using a full cup! Very delicious tea Made for I’ve saved all these recipes! & African Recipe tag 3/12 , I made this for my sister and I with rice milk to be dairy free used powdered ginger as I wasnt sure what this recipe called for I simmered the spices in the water for 13 minutes and then added the tea bag which I simmered for 4 additional minutes as to not be an overly strong tea Then I tasted it and felt the spices had not much permeated the drink probably because they were not fresh so I added some ground cinnamon, ground cardamom and simmered the tea a 1 1/2 minutes longer without the tea bag The tea was excellent with white sugar and milk in the said amount (That is Somali tea) I will be making this again
