Instructions

Steep Tea: Bring 1 cup of water to a boil in a small saucepan. Add black tea bags or loose-leaf tea, and let steep for 3–5 minutes. Remove tea bags or strain leaves.
Prepare Milk Mixture: In another saucepan, gently heat the milk over medium-low heat. Stir in honey (if using), vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
Combine: Pour the brewed tea into the milk mixture and stir gently to blend the flavors.
Serve: Transfer the tea into a mug, garnish with a cinnamon stick for added flavor and aesthetic, and enjoy your warm beverage.

Notes

For a frothy texture, use a milk frother or whisk the milk mixture before combining with the tea.
Adjust sweetness to taste, or skip entirely for an unsweetened version.
Experiment with different tea bases, such as chai or Earl Grey, for a variation in flavor.
