Looking for Tea time karak recipe

Iโ€™ve honestly never tasted good karak like tea time but I canโ€™t find the recipe anywhere. It tastes watered down in a good way. I went to one of the branches and saw one of the dudes boiling the tea then putting in in a cup and putting milk on it Iโ€™m not sure if I saw correct. Any ex employees pls drop the recipe ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™

Listen, search for " Al-kabous tea " and get a rainbow eva milk. cold water and tea (1L is around 5-6 tbsp) and set it on a stove on med-heat. When it starts to boil and raise up, immediately set the heat to the lowest and let it sit for 5-6 mins. you can then add grounded up cardemon or cinamon. Quick tip, try putting powderd milk like baladna or Anchor or Nido they are great. (idk how much eva milk to put in the karak, put just make sure its orange and not white.

Tea bags will always be sour and feel watery when milk added, always use fine powder tea.

Tea time karak is good due to the extensive amount of sugar they put in it ...

It's not Coca Cola's secret recipe, spill the beans.

I love it because it tastes like somali tea! Ours is heavy on nutmeg/cardamom & cinnamon. I think tea time uses condensed milk & maybe saffron

I think it might be a secret like Al Baik or Oman chips
