Comment préparer My Cuppa Tea Plain
Boil 2 cups of water in a saucepan.
Add 1 teaspoon of loose leaf black tea (or 2 tea bags) and 1/2 teaspoon of sugar (adjust to taste).
Bring the mixture back to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer.
Simmer gently for 2 minutes to allow the tea to steep fully.
Add 1 cup of milk (dairy or non-dairy) and return to a boil.
Reduce heat and simmer for another minute. The milk will help create a creamy, rich texture.
Remove from heat and strain the chai into two cups through a fine-mesh sieve.
Enjoy your perfectly brewed, strong and flavorful Indian-style chai! Feel free to add spices like cardamom, ginger, or cinnamon to your liking.
