Chai Tea Spice Blend for Milk Tea

DESCRIPTION:

Chai tea is a lovely, warming tea spiced tea from the India region. There are countless recipes from one person to another. We have intentionally left out nutmeg and green cardamom, as we find many folks in Taiwan do not enjoy the taste. If you enjoy the taste of these herbs, simply add 1-2 green cardamom pods and/or 1/8 nutmeg seed into the cooking process.

Chai tea is a wonderfully soothing drink for cold weather, and is well suited to winter time. Serving it cold is possible as well, though the taste will not be quite the same. During the hot summertime months, we are often drinking this spiced milk tea served cold with ice. Perfect for all seasons.

HOW TO PREPARE:

Approximately 250ml of Chai Tea. 1 jar makes approximately 40 cups.

- Make 125ml of strong Assam tea (Black tea can work as well, darker is better). Set aside when finished.

- Place 125ml fatty milk into pot.

- Let warm on low heat.

- Add 1 gram of masala powder (1 teaspoon), or to taste.

- Turn up heat to just under a slow simmer.

- Add 125ml of strong Assam tea (already made above).

- Let cook for a few minutes.

- Add sugar to taste (we use 1 teaspoon per cup)

Enjoy!
