    A traditional cup of chai consists of black tea, Indian spices, and full-fat milk that is boiled together for a few minutes. It is a common drink that can be found at an Indian Cafe or Indian Restaurant, which is often served with packaged fried snacks, bread butter, freshly fried potatoes (pakora), or even Indian Fried Rice.

    Ingredients

    • 5 oz water
    • 7 oz milk of choice
    • 1 tbsp white sugar
    • 1 tbsp loose leaf tea

    Directions

    1. In a chai pot add water, tea, sugar, and a choice of spice.
    2. Once it reaches a boil, let it continue for about 1-2 minutes. Some of the water will evaporate at this point.
    3. Add the milk to the pot and stir.
    4. Let the tea come to a boil and continue to stir. You may need to lift the pot off of the stove to prevent boiling over (be careful because this is not fun to clean up).
    5. Continue to boil and stir for about 1-2 minutes.
    6. Remove from heat and strain the tea into a coffee mug. The end result yields about 8-8.5oz of chai.
