Egg Tea (Teh talua)

Teh talua is an Indonesian tea-based drink that originated in West Sumatra. Colloquially called egg tea, it consists of brewed black tea, sugar, and egg yolks. It can be made with chicken or duck eggs. The drink is prepared by mixing egg yolks with sugar until the mix is creamy and frothy.

The yolks are then added to freshly brewed tea. Optionally, it can include freshly squeezed lime juice. It is believed that teh talua improves stamina and is generally considered a healthy beverage.
