This is the authentic recipe for Indian spiced tea combining both ground and hand-crushed whole spices with a robust Assam tea for strength and colour in milk. Warming, tantalising, and highly addictive. This is the ultimate spiced chai.
Enjoy: Morning - afternoon. A good replacement for coffee.
Brewing: Add 1 teaspoon of chai into 1/4 cup of boiling water and infuse for 2-3 minutes. Add 3/4 cup of cold milk of choice and stir over low heat until it reaches the required temperature. A teaspoon of honey may be added for sweetness. Strain into a cup or teapot and enjoy.
Ingredients: Black tea, cinnamon, cardamom pods, ginger, anise, clove, black pepper.
