Chai Tea
Simply said, Chai is a combination of spices and tea which are brewed and then mixed with milk and honey. Even though many tea drinkers prefer tea without a sweetener, Chai needs one in order to bring out the robust flavors of the spices. Traditional Chai is a mix of sweet and savory spices such as cloves, cinnamon, star anise, cardamom (which is a base spice in almost any Chai), peppercorn, ginger and sometimes fennel, which are ground and boiled in water. Black tea is then added to the spice mixture which is steeped to preference, strained, then combined with cow, goat or buffalo milk and sweetened with honey. David Rio has done all the work for you; simply add hot water to their powdered Chai and sip.
