Impress your friends with a pot of fresh homemade chai spiced tea! I like to use maple syrup for a richer taste, instead of the traditional honey.
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 tbsp chopped cardomon pods
- 2 thinly sliced pieces of fresh ginger
- 1 tbsp whole cloves
- dash nutmeg
- 1 tsp whole peppercorns
- dash garam masala (optional)
- 1 vanilla bean (optional)
- 4 cups water
- 1 cup milk (dairy or soy)
- liquid sweetener (honey, agave or maple syrup)
Preparation:
Add spices to water in a large pot or saucepan and boil for at least 15 minutes, or to desired strength. Remove from heat and strain. Add milk or soymilk and mix well. Add sweetener to taste (about one teaspoon per serving). Serve and enjoy!
