Directions
Vanilla & Honey Chai Tea,This Chai Tea is a steamy sip of bliss. It’s simple to make, and it infuses your home with an intoxicating aroma while it’s brewing on the stove. This recipe is an adaptation of one by Dr. Anisha Abraham that appeared in the Washington Post.,A good balance of spices. To a previous “reviewer” (and qestions should be sent privately, not posed as a review) used vanilla extract-the real, not artificial. I deducted a star because I found the format of the recipe to be bad. Steps 1-12 could have been done as a NOTE: and in 1 step. But the tea turned out great. Made for Spring 2013 PAC.

When You Are Making Brewed Tea, It Is Important to Use a Pot That Has not Had Regular Use For Greasy Foods, Tomato Sauces, or Soups. I Reserve a Medium Pot Exclusively For Boiling Water For Tea. of Course, I Am Fussy About My Tea. Good Tasting Tea Needs Good Tasting Water in a Clean Pan. Use a Good Bottled Water from a Natural Spring If It's a Available. It Does Make a Difference, and So Does the Tea Your Using. a Quality Organic Tea, I.e. ,St Balfours or Infusions, Makes a Cup of Tea Over Which You Will Want to Linger. the Bouquet and Body of Organic Teas Are Superior to Other Commerical Teas. |
