How to Make Copycat Oregon Chai Tea
- In a saucepan, combine water, tea bags, honey (or sugar), cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, cloves, nutmeg, and black pepper.
- Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce heat to low, and simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the spices to infuse and the tea to steep. Remove tea bags.
- Stir in milk and heat until steaming (do not boil).
- Remove from heat and strain the chai through a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a mug or pitcher.
- Serve hot or chilled over ice. Garnish with a cinnamon stick or a sprinkle of extra spice, if desired.
- Store leftover chai in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.
