Indian chai is typically made using a rich black tea, usually an Assam, and brewing in heavy milk with cardamom, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and pepper. The drink produces a warm soothing effect and engenders a wonderfully calming effect on the body. Vanilla adds a hint of creaminess to this blend. While the tea is brewing prepare your cup to receive the chai, put 2 teaspoons of sugar in the cup and add milk (about 20%) of the volume of the cup. When the chai is ready pour it into your cup and enjoy!
