Ingredients
- 2 cinnamon sticks
- 2 tsp black peppercorns
- 6 green cardamom pods , cracked
- 2 tsp whole cloves
- 2 tsp fresh ginger grated
- 3-4 black tea bags (or loose leaf black tea)
- 720 ml (3 cups) filtered water
- 4 tbsp maple syrup , honey, sugar or sweetener, to taste
- 240 ml (1 cup) steamed milk
- 4 shots of Amarula Vanilla Spice or to taste
To serve
- cinnamon sticks
- grated nutmeg or sprinkle of cinnamon
Instructions
- Start by toasting your spices in a saucepan until their wonderful aroma is released.
- Add the grated ginger and water (ideally filtered water) and simmer gently for five minutes.
- Take the saucepan off the heat. Add the tea leaves or tea bags, cover the saucepan and leave the tea to steep for five minutes.
- Add your choice of sweetener (I used maple syrup) and stir to dissolve in the hot tea.
- Strain the chai into a teapot or jug for easy pouring (discarding the tea and spices). Either use straight away or cool and store in the fridge to use within 2-3 days.
- Meanwhile heat your milk until almost scalding. Steam your milk using a milk frother or an immersion blender or your coffee machine frother if you have one.
- Divide the hot tea into mugs or glasses, filling about ¾ of the way. Add a splash of Amarula Vanilla Spice.
- Top with a little more milk and spoon some of the milk foam over the chai. Serve with a cinnamon stick and a grating of nutmeg or sprinkling of cinnamon.
