Instructions
Stove
Bring water to a boil.
Add the tablea and let it simmer until the tablea dissolves. Stir occasionally. Let it simmer for 5-10 minutes.
Add sugar or honey. You can also use your preferred sweetener or creamer if desired.
Serve hot or warm.
Instant Pot
Add the water and tablea to the instant pot.
Set the timer to 3 minutes on high pressure.
Allow a 10-minute natural release.
Add sweetener, then serve.
Notes
Substitute water with milk. Note: Do not use the instant pot if using milk. Dairy products do not do well in the instant pot. Combine milk and tablea in a saucepan on low heat. Do not let the milk boil. This requires constant stirring to prevent it from boiling over the top of the pan until the tablea dissolves.
You can also use the sauté function of the instant pot to bring the water to a boil, then add the tablea.
You may use 1-2 tablespoons of condensed milk as a sweetener instead of sugar or honey. You may also use your favorite sweetener or creamer.
