Easy Masala Indian Spiced Chai Recipe

Masala Chai Ingredients:

1-1/2 cups water
1 inch stick of cinnamon
8 cardamom pods
8 whole cloves
2/3 cup milk
6 tsp. sugar (or to taste)
3 teaspoons Tiger Hill Estate loose leaf black tea

Put 1-1/2 cups water in saucepan. Add the cinnamon, cardamom, cloves and bring to a boil. Cover, turn heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Add the milk and sugar and bring to a simmer again. Add in the black tea leaves, cover, and turn off the heat. After 2 minutes, strain the tea into two cups and serve immediately.

Chai recipes are fun to make from scratch or start with an authentic Indian spiced chai recipe like our Kama Sutra Blend and make small variances to suit your tastes. Different black teas can also be substituted in this Indian spiced chai recipe but it is best to start with broken orange pekoe or CTC loose leaf tea from India for the most authentic homemade chai.
