UPDATE: after trying many recipes, our favorite Chai recipe is here.
Indian Chai
In India, “Chai” literally means “tea.” Indian Chai is a fragrant, sweet and milky mixture that tastes great.
COMBINE:
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon black tea
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
Mix ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer. Stir constantly until the tea becomes a rich brown. Strain into two cups or several thimble-sized cups. Scale up recipe as needed.
How it looks in the beginning.
Just about there.
Ahhh!
