Mint milk

Open classification: health, food, diet, cooking, recipes.

Raw materials:

1 cup of low-fat milk (actually, it doesn't matter how much, it depends on how much you are going to drink at one go)

1 teaspoon of fresh finely ground coffee (not instant coffee, ground with fresh coffee beans, otherwise instant coffee should be ok, and the taste may be different).

3 to 4 mint leaves, torn into pieces or chopped.

Exercise:

Put the coffee powder into the milk and heat it (I just use the microwave oven) until it almost boils, but it hasn't arrived yet.

Add mint and stir with a spoon.

Put the milk at room temperature and let the coffee and mint taste before drinking. I prefer to drink milk when it is still warm, even in summer, because there is an unexpected tacit understanding between cool mint and warm milk.

Experience:

I mainly drink milk, and coffee only adds a little flavor, so there is no way to make coffee first and then add milk.

Coffee is freshly ground, not powdered, so there will be particles. When milk is heated, particles will naturally precipitate. But if it is a pleasure, you can use filter paper to remove coffee particles, or slowly pour milk from one container into another. Personally, I add visual flavor to pure milk for the black color of coffee.

It doesn't matter if mint is soaked in hot milk for a long time, but if you invite others to drink it, you can filter it out according to the above.
