Combine the water, tea, cardamom, cinnamon stick, cloves and 1 teaspoon of the sugar, and the peppercorns, if desired, in a large saucepan and simmer over low heat for 5 minutes. Add the milk and the rest of the sugar. Add the ginger 1 to 2 minutes after that, or when the mixture is back to a simmer. Wait for 15 to 30 seconds and then strain the tea into 2 cups.
