How to Make Chai Spiced Indian Tea

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in sweetener to taste (honey, sugar, or maple syrup are all great options).
  5. Strain the tea into mugs and serve immediately. Enjoy!
