D-hall Creations

Hi! Jeremy here. Every once in awhile, D-Hall food seems to stop tasting good, and you’ve already spent fifty bucks during the past week, so you can’t order out again. That’s why I want to make recipes for dishes that can be made in D-Hall for the Exonian community! My goal is to give you new recipes each week that are simple and delicious. Occasionally, I will collaborate with the instagram page @dhallcreations. (Follow them if you haven’t already!)

Chinese Milk Tea:

This first recipe is the classic, refreshing Chinese Milk Tea (nay cha). This Chinatown staple can be reproduced super quickly at D-Hall with nothing more than a handful of ingredients.

AVG. RATING: 4.7 OUT OF 5

1. 1 bag of Lipton Black Tea (0 Calories)

2. 1 teaspoon of Honey (or adjust to personal taste) (21 Calories)

3. ¼ cup 2% Milk (30 Calories), or alternatively: Vanilla Soy Milk (6 Calories)

4. About ¾ to 1 cup of ice

DIRECTIONS:

1. Place the tea bag inside a paper cup and fill the cup ¼ full with hot water.

2. Put the teaspoon of honey into the cup and stir until the water turns dark brown.

3. Fill a plastic cup all the way up with ice and pour the black tea into the plastic cup.

4. Add milk to the black tea and stir until all the tea and the milk are mixed well.

Gan bei!
