Ingredients- 2 Job’s Tears tea sticks
- 180ml UHT milk
- 3 pine nuts
- 7 ice cubes
- 1 Tbsp honey
- 50ml hot water
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare your two Job’s Tears tea sticks. You can use your favorite brand or flavor.
Step 2
In a small bowl or cup, combine the Job’s Tears powder with 50ml of hot water. Whisk thoroughly with a frother or spoon until smooth and lump-free. Ensuring there are no clumps is key to a smooth beverage.
Step 3
Measure out 180ml of UHT milk. Using cold milk will enhance the refreshing chill of the drink.
Step 4
In a blender, add the 7 ice cubes and 150ml of the cold milk. Pour in the prepared Job’s Tears mixture. Secure the lid tightly and blend until the ice is finely crushed and the mixture has a smooth, slushy consistency.
Step 5
Once the ice is well blended, add 1 tablespoon of honey. You can adjust the amount of honey to your personal preference. Briefly blend again or stir to incorporate the honey evenly.
Step 6
Using the remaining 30ml of cold milk, create a rich milk foam. Use a whisk or a handheld frother to whip the milk until it forms stiff, velvety peaks. The foam should be thick enough to hold its shape, not runny.
Step 7
Place the 3 pine nuts on a piece of kitchen towel. Pine nuts are a crucial ingredient for adding that delightful nutty aroma and flavor, so use fresh ones.
Step 8
Fold the kitchen towel in half over the pine nuts, and use the back of a knife to crush them into a powder. After crushing, gently rub the towel to extract as much oil from the pine nuts as possible. Sprinkle this oily powder over the top of your drink for an extra burst of nutty fragrance.
Step 9
Pour the blended Job’s Tears mixture into your serving glass. Gently spoon the rich milk foam on top. Finally, sprinkle the crushed pine nut powder over the foam. Your homemade Job’s Tears Milk Foam Frappuccino, complete with a café-worthy presentation, is ready to be enjoyed!
