How to Make Hot Indian Chai Drink
- In a large saucepan, combine 4 cups water, 2 cups plant-based milk (almond, soy, or oat work well), 4 teaspoons black tea leaves, 2 cinnamon sticks, 4 green cardamom pods (lightly crushed), 1-inch piece of ginger (peeled and thinly sliced), and 1/4 cup sugar (or to taste).
- Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low and gently simmer for 2 minutes, allowing the tea to steep and infuse.
- Remove from heat and let the mixture sit undisturbed for 1 minute to allow the froth to settle slightly.
- Repeat steps 2-4 two more times for maximum froth and flavor.
- Strain the chai through a fine-mesh sieve into mugs and serve immediately. Enjoy!
