  1. Bring 1 can Andre Prost Coconut Milk to a full boil. Remove from heat and add tea bags, ginger, cardamom and salt. Stir and cover. Let steep for 5 minutes.
  2. Add sugar and stirring occasionally, simmer for 2-3 minutes to steep some more, and dissolve sugar. Strain hot base through a fine sieve into a medium bowl. Whisk in remaining can of Coconut Milk until smooth.
  3. Meanwhile, beat egg yolks very well, in a medium bowl. Stirring continuously, add (in a thin stream) one cup of coconut-chai mixture to beaten egg yolks to temper. Whisk tempered egg yolks into coconut-chai mixture and pour into a medium sized sauce pan.
