Kalladka Tea!

One of the famous tea back in my hometown, Mangalore. Kalladka tea is named after it's place Kalladka. More than the taste, this tea is an art in itself. It is famously also known as 3 layered tea. I got obsessed with making this since my brother started travelling to Bangalore, and he always stopped at Kalladka to drink this tea also known as KT. I wondered how can there be 3 layers in tea until I gave it try myself. Here goes the recipe. Ingredients: 1 cup milk 1/2 cup water 1.5 tablespoon tea powder Sugar To make KT: Firstly boil milk. Add desired amount of sugar. Next step is turning the milk frothy. For this you will need 2 cups. Pour milk from one cup to another from quite a distance to make it frothy. In 1-2 minutes you will see a layer of froth appearing on top of the milk. Simultaneously, prepare tea decoction. Boil it to obtain dark color. Once decoction is ready, get hold of a spoon, place it gently just between the frothy layer and milk, and sl...
