Indian Tea or chaai is made by cooking the tea leaves in a mixture of milk and water, till it acquires a rich hue, aroma and flavour. These three - that is, colour, aroma and taste - set the benchmark for a cuppa. All three need to be perfect for the Indian Tea to be refreshing and enjoyable! Indian masala chai is a delicious and sweet beverage made with milk, black tea, and several spices.
Steps to make Indian Style Tea:
- Lightly crush your spices and add tea and water to a saucepan and bring to the boil. Be sure not to boil water to long or u will over boil the water and spoil the taste.
- Once the water has boiled add your milk and again bring to the boil. Turn the heat down and bring to the boil again. Doing this process multiple times will create a creamy and more richer flavoured tea.
- As soon as the milk is boiling add your sugar this can be done afterwards but I like to infuse my sugar with my tea in the boiling process. Once it has boiled strain into cup/cups using a small strainer and enjoy.
- This Recipe can be changed and altered to your liking. As you make it more and more u will discover what spices etc. you may like more or less of. Sugar is definitely optional but in my opinion you can't drink Indian tea without sugar. Also you can adapt the recipe to make more or less tea.
