Treat yourself to a creamy tea latte — with a wide range of teas to choose from, a tea latte stands out as a delightful fusion of comforting warmth and rich, diverse flavours. We couldn’t think of a better teatime treat than the creamy blend of goodness that is a milk tea latte.

What is a tea latte?

A tea latte is a harmonious blend of brewed tea and steamed milk, creating a velvety, smooth texture that caters to tea enthusiasts and coffee lovers alike. Unlike traditional teas, tea latte transforms the brewing ritual into a sensory journey, combining the earthy notes of tea with the creamy embrace of milk. This beverage takes traditional tea up a notch, perfect for a hearty breakfast or your favourite dessert.

The origins of tea latte

The roots of the tea latte are traced back to the chai latte, one of the oldest tea-based drinks in the world that originated in India centuries ago and is now available almost anywhere. Since “chai” means “tea”, a chai tea latte actually translates to a tea latte.

While it’s traditionally brewed with black tea and hot milk, this beverage has several modern adaptations, including spices and other toppings. T2 is proud to pay homage to this famous beverage with a modern take on this delicious blend. We source whole tea leaves rather than low-grade tea dust, so you can experience a flavour that packs a punch with every sip.

How to brew a tea latte

Brewing the perfect tea latte is an art that requires precision and passion, but at T2, our powdered tea blends make achieving a creamy tea latte from your home easy. Simply follow the below steps to create a sip-worthy tea latte:

  1. Heat your water/milk — Boil water or heat a glass of milk in the saucepan until it reaches a gentle simmer or microwave until it’s at the desired temperature.

  3. Mix your tea latte — Stir in the remainder of your hot milk or water into your mug. If you’re using milk, use a milk frother to create a velvety microfoam for the creamiest textured tea latte.
  4. Sweetening is optional — Add your desired amount of sweetener tailored to the sweetness of your preference.
  5. Enjoy — Enjoy the aroma and flavours of your homemade tea latte, providing the gentle mug of goodness you need to get through the day.

FAQs

What is a tea latte?

A tea latte combines hot water or steamed or frothed milk with brewed tea, creating a creamy and flavourful drink. Unlike traditional lattes made with coffee, tea lattes use various types of tea as their base, such as black, green, chai or herbal teas. The ratio of milk/water to tea can be adjusted to suit individual preferences. Sweeteners like honey or vanilla can be added to enhance the taste. Tea lattes are a comforting and customisable alternative to plain tea, catering to various flavour preferences.

Are there any tips for achieving the perfect froth for a tea latte?

To achieve the perfect froth for a tea latte, first, ensure the milk is cold and fresh, as colder milk tends to froth better. Use a high-quality frother or steam wand to create fine, velvety foam. Heat the milk until it reaches a low simmer, as overheating can affect the froth quality. Experiment with different milk types, such as whole milk or non-dairy alternatives, to find the one that froths best for your taste. Finally, pour the frothed milk into your tea powder slowly, allowing the foam to form on top for a delicious, creamy tea latte.
