I came across of kesar chai or saffron milk tea in the net. Since, i have stock of saffron i bought during my Jaipur vacation i decided to make this exotic tea. Jaipur saffron are known for their best quality and i used tea leaves that i bought from my Munnar, Kerala vacation. As everyone knows Munnar are famous for their tea. Two best ingredients into one recipe creates a flavorful hard to resist tea.
I'm a person who enjoy my afternoon tea and always look out for new way to spice up my tea. I'm really happy to discover this luxurious tea as saffron is a most expensive spice in the world and rich with vitamins and minerals. Love the rich and deep colur of the tea.

1 1/2 tbsp tea leaves
1 tbsp sugar
1 cup milk
