3 whole cloves
1 piece of cinnamon stick

Common Chai Recipe
  • 4 cups water
  • 1-2 whole cloves
  • 1 stick cinnamon
  • 1-2 cardamom pods (cracked open)

Bring these to a boil; let stand as long as possible.
Then add: 4 tsp. loose Assam Summer Tips for a strong robust flavor. and let steep.
Then add: 2 cups milk to the tea-spice mixture and heat but do not boil. When hot, strain and add: 4 tablespoons of sugar (or a little less) Stir and keep hot.

Variations:

  • The beauty of making chai is you can vary the ingredients according to your taste. Some Chai lovers enjoy the taste of ginger in their chai. Add ginger flavor either by adding fresh ginger pieces or alternatively use our ginger assam tea, an exceptional blend of Assam leaf tea and natural ginger root.
  • Variety is the spice of life. Try incorporating some of these spices in your chai, according to your taste preferences: anise seed, black peppercorns, bay leaves, and nut meg.
  • You may also want to substitute different types of black tea. For subtler chai flavor use a high quality darjeeling or premium nilgiri tea.
