Spiced Chai Tea
Author: mrfarmersdaughter.com
- ⅓ c. Black Assam Tea (recommended brand is Taj)
- 8 c. water
- 1 tsp. chai spice (or to taste)
- ½ can sweetened condensed milk
- milk or half & half
- Bring water to boil.
- Add tea.
- Keep at a simmer until it is reduced by half, adding spice about half way through.
- Stir in sweetened condensed milk and cook for another 10 minutes until a “scum” forms. (Yes, just a little bit…)
- Remove from heat and strain through very fine strainer.
- Use immediately or store in refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- To serve:
- Fill coffee cup ¾ full with hot chai, add milk or half and half to taste.
- You can add more sugar if you like it really sweet but taste it first. It may just be perfect.
