Spiced Chai

( 0 reviews )

Serves: 21x2x3x4x5x

Prep time: 3 MinCook time: 7 MinTotal time: 10 Min

IngredientsUSMetric

• 1 cup water
• 1/2 tsp fennel seeds
• 1-inch fresh ginger
• 4 cardamom pods
• 1.5 cups milk
• 1 tbsp black tea leaves or 2 tea bags
• Sugar to taste

Instructions

1. Add water, ginger, cardamom (pounded), and fennel seeds to a small pan & bring to a boil.
2. Once boiling, add tea leaves/tea bag and milk at the same time and bring back to boil. (IMPORTANT - The tea and the milk get poured in at the same time so the milk coats the tea and releases the tannins of the tea)
3. NOTE: Make sure to properly boil the milk, to do this allow the milk to rise once, set aside for a few seconds for it to settle down, and then do this x 2 more times. Milk is then purified and ready to drink.
4. Strain, add sugar, and enjoy hot. (Avoid having milk with anything salty)
