-430 mL (1 1/3 cup) water

-10 mL (2 tsp) hojicha tea

-10 mL (2 tsp) brown sugar

Vanilla Cream Froth:

-60 mL (1/4 cup) heavy cream

-Pinch of salt

Instructions:

1. Boil water on the stovetop or if using an electric kettle with a temperature setting set it to 208°F. Combine tea and hot water in a teapot. Use a teapot with a strainer or infuser to make it easier to make without a mess.

2. Cover teapot and steep for 5 minutes. Strain tea leaves and pour hot tea into a cup. Stir in brown sugar until completely dissolved. Set aside.

3. Lightly whip heavy cream, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract. Whip using a handheld milk frother for about 10-15 seconds. Once it has thickened, stop whisking. Don't overwhip. The lightly whipped cream should be pourable.

4. Pour cream froth into cup with tea.
