Chai Tea

Chai Tea

Chai tea is originally from India. It is a century old drink but has become so popular throughout the world. People make them in many different ways. I first tried chai tea years ago, but had never made it myself.

I just ordered some Cardamom and couldn’t wait to make my own chai tea.

Here’s my recipe on chai tea.

It is actually easier than you think.

Ingredients

• 8 Cardamom pods
• Fresh ginger (small piece) peeled and sliced
• 8 allspice corn (pimienta dulce)
