Ingredients

  1. 3 tablespoons black tea leaves or 4-5 black tea bags
  2. 1 cinnamon stick
  3. 6-8 whole green cardamom pods, crushed
  4. 6-8 whole cloves
  5. 1 teaspoon fennel seeds
  6. 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
  7. 1-inch fresh ginger, sliced
  8. 4-5 cups water
  9. 2-3 cups milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  10. Sweetener of choice (honey, sugar, or alternative)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Spice Blend:
    • In a mortar and pestle, crush the cardamom pods and fennel seeds slightly to release their essential oils. Combine with the cinnamon stick, cloves, and black peppercorns to create a fragrant Chai Spice blend.
  2. Infuse the Tea:
    • In a saucepan, bring water to a boil and add the black tea leaves or tea bags. Allow it to steep for 3-5 minutes, depending on your desired strength. Remove the tea leaves or bags and set the brewed tea aside.
  3. Create the Chai Base:
    • In the same saucepan, add the Chai Spice blend, sliced ginger, and the desired sweetener. Pour in the milk of your choice, and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
  4. Infuse the Aromas:
    • Allow the Chai Spice mixture to simmer for 8-10 minutes, ensuring the spices release their aromatic essence into the liquid. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and to evenly distribute the flavors.
  5. Strain and Serve:
    • Strain the Chai Spice mixture through a fine mesh sieve or tea strainer to remove the whole spices and ginger slices. Pour the infused tea into cups, savoring the enticing aroma that fills the air.
  6. Customize and Enjoy:
    • Customize your Chai Spice elixir by adjusting the sweetness and milk content to your liking. Feel free to experiment with different sweeteners and milk alternatives for a personalized touch.
