HOMEMADE CHAI RECIPE

Steps:

• Combine the cloves, cardamom, cinnamon, and peppercorns and crush them together using the back of a wooden spoon on a clean work surface or on a plate or by using a mortar and pestle in order to release their flavors. Transfer the crushed spices to a saucepan, add the ginger and 6 cups water, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and simmer gently for 8 to 10minutes.
• Add the tea bags and remove the pan from the heat. Steep at room temperature for 5 to 7 minutes, depending upon how strong you like your tea. I would recommend brewing your tea a bit stronger than you usually do because the milk and sugar will dilute its potency.
• Remove the tea bags and then add the sugar, milk, and salt. Return to a simmer over high heat while stirring to dissolve the sugar. Remove from the heat just after it comes to a simmer, strain into cups, and serve hot.
