Zubereitung von Spiced Chai
- In a large saucepan, combine 4 cups of water and 2 cups of milk.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Add 3 green cardamom pods (lightly crushed), 1 teaspoon black peppercorns, 4 whole cloves, 1 cinnamon stick (about 2 inches), 1 star anise, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1-inch piece of fresh ginger (peeled and thinly sliced), and 4 tablespoons of black tea leaves (loose leaf or 8 tea bags).
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the tea reaches your desired strength. Longer steeping time will result in a stronger, more intense flavor.
- Carefully remove from heat and strain the tea through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into another pot, discarding the spices.
- Stir in 2-4 tablespoons of honey (or to taste), ensuring it's fully dissolved.
- Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Pour the Spiced Chai into your favorite mugs. Serve warm, or chill thoroughly in the refrigerator before serving over ice.
