Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 cups whole milk or dairy-free alternative
- 1 cup water
- 2 tsp black tea leaves Assam or English Breakfast
- 4 pods green cardamom lightly crushed
- 2 tbsp sugar or to taste
- 1 inch cinnamon stick optional
Notes
For a stronger cardamom flavor, increase to 5-6 pods. Store any leftover chai in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheat gently. For a vegan version, use oat or almond milk. The chai can be made ahead and stored without milk, then reheated with fresh milk when ready to serve.
