Indian Chai
1 1/2 cup water
1 cup milk
2 tea bags
6-10 whole cloves
1/2 t fennel seed
1" piece cinnamon stick-crack with hammer
2 cardamon pods-cracked
2 T rounded sugar or to taste
In a meduim pan add spices to water and heat. When it begins to boil, add the tea bags and sugar. Boil for 1 minute, then add the milk. Bring back to a boil, turn heat down and simmer 1-2 minutes. Strain to remove spices and bags. Can add honey just before serving.
This soooo good and you can adjust to make stronger, sweeter and use more milk than water. I don't like cardamon so I omit.
