FAQS
Chai is a black tea variety popularised in India. It is made using a technique called CTC- cut, tear and curl. In India, it is made with black tea, spices like ginger, cardamom, cinnamon, black pepper, etc to which milk is and it is brewed together. Usually sugar and jaggery is added to sweeten it.
We recommend a certain temperature (80-85 C; 90-95 C) for the fresh oxygen rich filtered water to be boiled at the time of brewing the tea. This is only a guide and precision without a thermometer is challenging. You can simply boil and see for yourself. Boiling water is at 100 C, if you leave it for 30 sec it should be around 90-95 C, if you leave it for 40-45 sec it should be around 85-90 C and for 1 minute leave water at around 80-85 C.
Divide the 150 ml into 3 parts milk and 1 part water. To this add 2 gms of tea. Add the spices of your choice. Bring to a boil, simmer and let it sit together for 10 mins in the flame. Add sweetener of your choice and strain the tea.
