I want some pretty chai mugs...
Today I learnt that it is relatively easy to make chai tea from scratch! Here is a brief recipe for those of you playing at home: 2 C water 2 C milk 4 tsp loose leaf tea (cut open some tea bags if you have none?) 1/4 C sugar (maybe less? Mine was too sweet) 2 tsp cinnamon 8 whole cloves 4 black peppercorns 1/4 tsp cardamom (I didn't have any, so I used mixed spice instead) -Combine all ingredients in a medium sized saucepan. -Medium heat until just boiling. -Once boiled, reduce heat and simmer for five minutes. -Strain with a tea strainer of some sort. -Drink! Makes about 4 cups o' tea. I want some pretty chai mugs...
