Masala Chai Tea Latte
Masala Chai Tea Latte is all about a harmony of spices, milk, sugar, and tea. An authentic, warm, pick-me-up cup of tea.
Ingredients
Spices
- 6 whole cloves
- 3 cinnamon sticks (3 inches each)
- 6 cardamom seeds (cracked. We will need both the pod and seeds.)
- 4 whole black peppercorns
Tea
- ½ inch ginger (sliced)
- 3 cups water
- 6 teaspoons loose leaf black tea ((I use Assam Black Tea))
- 1 cup milk ((I use Oatly's Barista Blend))
- 3-4 teaspoons turbinado cane sugar
Instructions
- In small saucepan, on low heat, toast spices (cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, and peppercorns) for 4-5 minutes. Add ginger, stir for 1 minute.
- In a small pot, on high heat, let water boil then add tea leaves. Turn heat down to simmer for 7 minutes.
- Add milk and sugar, stir for 1 minute. Remove from heat and strain, keeping the liquid only.
- Pour latte into mugs and enjoy!
Notes
Add more milk and sugar to taste.
Although this is best enjoyed fresh, this will keep in the refrigerator for 1 day.
