Add a healthy pinch of grated ginger.
Take 3-4 cardamom cloves, break em open to get the seeds, crush them using a blunt object, like mortar and pestle (you can also grind in food processor) and add to pot.
Add a tablespoon of black tea powder. Any Indian brand will work.
Bring the mix to a roaring boil.
Add milk until you get this color.
Bring to boil
Filter tea to cup
Aaaand voila, done! Serve with your favorite butter cookies/biscuit to dip in tea!
Enjoy!
Enjoy!
UPDATE!: Crap, forgot to mention this, but add sugar to your taste at the end!
Oops, forgot this as well: Wanted to educate ya'll on some Hindi words while at it but forgot, so here it is:
- Cardamom: Illaichi (ill-aye-chee)
- Ginger: Adarak (Ud-ah-ruk)
- Tea: Chai (Hence why I hate the term Chai Tea Latte.....you're repeating the same thing... 😑😒)
