Wei Ruo opened the small jar, using a small spoon to scoop out the black tea leaves inside.
Upon seeing the color of the tea leaves, a variety of puzzled expressions appeared on everyone's faces.
Why was the tea black?
If the tea was not stored properly or if it was over-roasted during the drying process, wouldn't it become black?
Wei Ruo understood their confusion, but rather than explaining, she concentrated on the task at hand.
The process of making milk tea was not complicated. The caramel was pre-prepared. After it was added to water and boiled, the black tea was added. After boiling for a while longer, milk was added. Once brought to a boil again, the kettle could be removed from the stove.
Wei Ruo set out the teacups and poured the milk tea into them. The teapot had a built-in filter, so there was no need to worry about tea leaves pouring out with the tea, and no need for any additional filtering cloth.
