Categories     Beverages

Total Time 7 minutes

Prep Time 2 minutes

Cook Time 5 minutes

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 cups water
1 1/2 tbsp black tea leaves
3/4 cup organic whole milk
2 green cardamom pods
2 cloves
1/4 tsp fennel seeds
2 tsp granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Gather the tea leaves, milk, water and spices, if using, to make the chai.
  • Start by bringing the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
  • Crush any spices that you are using for the chai.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and add the tea leaves to boiling water. Let it boil for a minute.
  • Add the organic whole milk and increase the heat to medium-heat. Keep a close watch on the saucepan at this time, as the milk may boil over.
  • As the milk is about to boil, add the chai masala spice mix, if using. Mix it in well, with a spoon.
  • Bring the tea to a boil, and reduce heat to medium-low or whichever heat point where the chai keeps dubbing and simmering but does not rise so it can overflow.
  • Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes. You can let it simmer for just a minute or so, if you are in a hurry. The simmering is what concentrates all that flavor for the chai. You can simmer it for as long as even 5-10 mins. It may reduce the quantity of chai a little but it will keep it nice and hot as you wait for company.
  • Turn off heat and strain the chai into tea cups. Add sugar to taste and mix well. Enjoy it hot.

Reduce heat to low and add all spices, ginger, and tea. Gently simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in milk and sugar and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 10 more minutes, stirring frequently to prevent milk from burning on the bottom of the pot. Optionally, to aerate and build creaminess into the chai, use a ladle to repeatedly scoop and pour chai back into the pot, from a slight height.  Remove from heat and let stand 5 minutes more before straining out spices and serving.
