A refreshing Vietnamese street drink, trà tắc balances brewed black tea with crushed mandarin and a little sugar, then is served over plenty of ice. This lower-sugar recipe suits those looking for a refreshing, low-calorie drink.
Brew black tea with boiling water for 10 minutes, then strain.
Halve and gently crush mandarins with their peel in a glass for 3 minutes, releasing the peel’s bittersweet oils into the tea.
Mix brewed tea with crushed mandarin and granulated sugar for 2 minutes.
Pour the mixture over plenty of ice and serve.
When crushing the mandarins, gently press the peel too; its bittersweet, refreshing aroma is the signature of trà tắc. Crush too much and bitterness may dominate.
Tarifte 10 dakika demleme yazıyor ama ben çayı biraz daha koyu sevdiğim için 14 dakika bekledim, acılaşmadan güzel bir koyuluk yakaladım. Mandalina miktarını da 4'ten 6'ya çıkarınca ekşiliği daha baskın, daha ferahlatıcı oldu.
