• hidangan: 2 servings
• jumlah masa: 15 minutes

Bahan-bahan

1 1/4 cups (300ml) water

2 teaspoons (5g) Premium or Gold CTC black tea leaves2 teaspoons (10g) granulated sugar

Any one or two of the following spices/flavorings: one lightly crushed 1-inch knob fresh ginger (about 1/2 ounce; 14g); 2 lightly crushed cardamom pods; 2 lightly crushed cloves; one lightly crushed 2-inch stick cinnamon (see notes)

Arahan

In a 2-quart saucepan, bring the 1 1/4 cups water to a simmer over medium-high heat. Add tea, sugar, and the spices/flavorings you have selected from the list. For a light chai, allow the mix to boil until the extract is reddish brown and lightly aromatic, about 2 minutes. For a stronger chai, allow the mixture to boil until the extract is darker, thicker, and more aromatic, about 5 minutes.

Add milk to chai mixture, return to a boil, then set a timer for 5 minutes. While the timer is counting down, allow the chai to rise up in the saucepan until it almost boils over, then reduce heat and allow it to fall back down into the pot. Increase the heat and repeat this process of almost boiling over 3 more times. Finally, reduce heat to a gentle simmer for the remainder of the 5-minute timer.

Remove chai from heat, cover with a lid, and allow it to stand for 5 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer and serve immediately.
