How to Make Chai Spiced Indian Tea
- In a saucepan or teapot, combine 2 cups of water, ½ cup of half-and-half, 2 cinnamon sticks (about 2 inches total), 4 green cardamom pods (lightly crushed), 1-inch piece of fresh ginger (peeled and thinly sliced), and 4 whole cloves.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Once simmering, reduce heat to low and let it simmer for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add 2 black tea bags (or 2 teaspoons loose leaf black tea). Simmer for another 2-5 minutes, or until the tea reaches your desired strength.
- Remove from heat and stir in sweetener to taste (honey, sugar, or maple syrup are all great options).
- Strain the tea into mugs and serve immediately. Enjoy!
