How do I make masala chai tea?

There are several ways to make Masala Chai tea, but here is a simple recipe that you can try:

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon loose-leaf black tea or 2 tea bags
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 4 green cardamom pods, crushed
  • 4 whole cloves
  • 1 piece of fresh ginger, peeled and grated
  • 2-3 teaspoons of sugar (optional)

Instructions:

In a pot, bring the water to a boil and then add the cinnamon stick, green cardamom pods, whole cloves, and grated ginger.

Add the milk and sugar (if using) to the pot and let it come to a boil again.

Once it comes to a boil, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for another 2-3 minutes.
