Description

Masala Chai Tea is a traditional Indian spiced tea made by brewing black tea with a blend of aromatic spices and milk, offering a warm, comforting, and flavorful beverage.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 cups whole milk (or any milk of choice)
  • 2 tablespoons black tea leaves or 2 black tea bags (Assam or Darjeeling preferred)
  • 2–3 cardamom pods, crushed
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 3–4 whole cloves
  • 1 small piece of fresh ginger, sliced
  • 4–6 black peppercorns
  • 1–2 tablespoons sugar or to taste

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan, bring water, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, and peppercorns to a boil.
  2. Reduce heat and let the spices simmer for 5-7 minutes to infuse the flavors.
  3. Add milk and sugar, then bring back to a gentle boil.
  4. Add black tea leaves or tea bags and simmer for another 2-3 minutes.
  5. Strain the tea into cups using a fine mesh sieve and serve hot.

Notes

  • Adjust the spice mix to suit your taste—add fennel, star anise, or nutmeg for variations.
  • Use plant-based milk for a vegan version.
  • Crushing the spices before boiling helps release their full flavor.
  • Sweetener can be replaced with honey, jaggery, or sugar alternatives.
