Ingredients

• 3 tbsp loose Ceylon black tea
• 400 ml Water
• 100 ml Evaporated milk
• 180 ml strong brewed coffee (or 2 tsp instant)
• 2 tbsp sweetened condensed milk or sugar, to taste
• Ice (optional)

Method

1. Simmer the tea and water in a small pan over low heat for 5 min, then strain. Stir in the evaporated milk to make milk tea.
2. Brew the coffee while the tea simmers.
3. Stir the condensed milk into the hot coffee, then pour in the milk tea, about 7 parts milk tea to 3 parts coffee. Taste and adjust the balance.
4. Serve hot, or cool and pour over plenty of ice.

Tips

• Contains caffeine from both tea and coffee, so it packs a punch.
• Freeze some milk tea in an ice tray so iced yuenyeung never tastes watery.
