STEP BY STEP CHAI DEMYSTIFIED RECIPE
Are you ready to make your very own homemade cup of cha? Find my simple recipe below:
- Bring 1 cup of water to boil
- Add in 2 teaspoon of loose leaf Assam black tea
- (I use Tea India, you are welcome to use any black tea of your choice. If you are looking for a caffeine free alternative, I recommend Rooibos tea)
- If you are using the Chai Demystified Cha Masala blend, add 3 teaspoons of the blend and skip step 3
- Add 1 teaspoon of cha masala
- Make your cha masala by blending together cardamom, cloves, and fennel seeds
- Add 1 to 2 teaspoons of sugar or sweetener of your choice
- Boil together for at least 2 minutes
- Add 1/2 cup of whole milk
- If you are dairy free I recommend using 1 cup of Oat milk to give it a creamy texture
Once all your ingredients are boiling together you will notice a reddish orange color of the cha. Continue to boil but make sure to keep an eye on your cha so it doesn’t boil over. As it boils up to the top of your pot, turn off the heat and or take it off the stove.
Your cha is now ready to be strained into your favorite cup and served with a fennel biscotti or on its own.
Enjoy!
