Directions
Chai (Indian Tea),Chai is basically black tea brewed with selected spices and milk. This is the most commonly used traditional recipe of the classic Indian spiced tea. Chai tastes are personal and the making of chai requires experimenting with different amounts of spices, milk and ingredients to discover the specific blend of spices to suit your tastes. Be sure to use black tea for this recipe, not green or some other specialized variety.,This made a typical spicy chai but easy to drink, too many others use too much cinnamon and cloves, which is just too much flavor. But this one is more balanced. I did however use raw ginger instead of powder and it was more like a mass of two teaspoons, and used 5 cardamom pods. But very good advice to stay low on the cinnamon. Cinnamon spreads it’s flavor very well in low doses anyway, using too much is just nauseating.,This is similar to chai sheer that I make during Ramadan. I usually leave out the peppercorns and ginger though!
