Blended India Tea's
With Spices
*Special Order
A spicy blend of Indian teas with cinnamon, ginger, cardamon, clove, and pepper. Brew it strong with milk and sugar.
In India, "chai" is the word for tea, and "masala" means a mixture of spices. In many parts of India, "masala chai" is prepared using local tea boiled in a mixture of water and milk, with lots of sugar, and whatever spices that are popular locally. There are probably as many variations on the recipe as there are households in India, but the general result is a spicy, sweet, and milky tea, further variations of which are now being promulgated in the U.S.
Most "chai" in this country is prepared using a pre-made concentrate to which hot milk is added; these often are excessively sweet and the amount of tea in them can be negligible. Our Masala Chai incorporates pungent Assam and south India broken leaf teas blended with cinnamon, ginger, cardamon, cloves, and fresh-ground tellicherry peppercorns. This should be brewed fresh and mixed with freshly heated milk and sugar to taste.
