Cómo preparar Skinny Chai Tea
- In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups of water, 1 cinnamon stick (3 inches), 2-inch piece of ginger (peeled and thinly sliced), 4 green cardamom pods (lightly crushed), 1 teaspoon black peppercorns, and ½ teaspoon ground cloves.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes to allow the spices to infuse.
- Optional: Add 1 star anise and 6 allspice berries for extra warmth (step can be skipped).
- Remove from heat and let steep, covered, for 10 minutes. This allows for maximum flavor extraction.
- Add 4 tea bags (black, green, or herbal tea) to the saucepan.
- Bring the mixture back to a gentle simmer for 5 minutes, ensuring the tea bags are fully steeped.
- Remove from heat and carefully strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean saucepan, discarding the spices and tea bags.
- Return the strained chai to the saucepan. Whisk in 1-2 tablespoons of brown sugar (or to taste) and 2 cups of your preferred milk (soy, almond, or dairy).
- Heat gently until warmed through (do not boil).
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
