How to Make Delicious Earl Grey Milk Tea Jam at Home
Experience pure bliss by spreading this delightful milk tea jam on freshly baked bread! It’s the perfect sweet treat.
Ingredients- 1000ml Fresh Whole Milk
- 500ml Heavy Cream
- 90g Granulated Sugar
- 1 packet Lipton Milk Tea Mix
- 3 Earl Grey Tea Bags
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
In a heavy-bottomed saucepan (a non-stick one is highly recommended to prevent sticking), combine the whole milk (1000ml), heavy cream (500ml), and granulated sugar (90g). Stir gently with a spatula or whisk until the sugar is dissolved.
Step 2
Next, add the contents of one packet of Lipton milk tea mix to the pot. Also, introduce the 3 Earl Grey tea bags for that distinct aromatic flavor. You can hook the strings of the tea bags over the pot handle for easy removal later.
Step 3
Begin to simmer the mixture over medium-low heat. It’s crucial to stir constantly to prevent the jam from sticking to the bottom of the pot. As small bubbles start to appear around the edges, reduce the heat slightly and continue to gently bubble and reduce the mixture until it thickens to a jam-like consistency. This process can take approximately 30-40 minutes.
Step 4
The jam is ready when it has thickened considerably and you can see the bottom of the pot for a moment when you drag your spatula through it. Be careful not to overcook, as the jam will thicken further as it cools. Once the desired consistency is reached, remove the tea bags before taking it off the heat.
Step 5
Carefully pour the warm milk tea jam into a sterilized glass jar. Wipe the rim of the jar clean, and once the jam has cooled completely, secure the lid and store it in the refrigerator. This way, you can enjoy your delicious homemade Earl Grey milk tea jam for a long time! It’s wonderful spread on toast, crackers, or waffles.
