Milky Masala Chai

Milky Masala Chai combines water, milk, the prepared Masala Chai Mix, black tea, and optional sweetener in one pot.

The mixture is brought to a boil while being stirred so the milk does not catch on the bottom of the pan. As soon as it boils, the heat is reduced.

Five minutes of simmering is enough to infuse the tea and spices. The chai is then strained, sweetened if desired, and served.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups water
  • 1 cup milk or soy milk
  • 1/2–3/4 teaspoon Masala Chai Mix
  • 1–2 teaspoons loose-leaf black tea, or 1–2 tea bags
  • Sweetener to taste, optional

Method

Combine the water, milk, Masala Chai Mix, and black tea in a large pot over high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring so the milk does not burn. Reduce the heat immediately and simmer for 5 minutes. Strain, add sweetener if desired, and serve. Makes 4 servings.
