Lightly crush the lemongrass, cardamom pods, and kaffir lime leaves in a mortar and pestle. Combine the milk and water, along with all other ingredients, in a saucepan and simmer for about 30 minutes. Never let it boil completely! Strain the liquid through a sieve (I use a fine mesh sieve) and pour into a jug. Now either keep warm on a stovetop and enjoy, or chill and enjoy. The quantities can be adjusted to your liking.
