Masala Chai

Masala Chai means "spiced tea" and in hindi (many american places call this drink Chai Tea, which is redundant) and it is becoming very popular world wide. I love Chai. Its delicious, spicy, sweet and even people who hate conventional tea will drink masala chai. Here's the recipe I use:

Darjeeling Tea
Cardamom
Ginger
Cinnamon
Cream/soy cream/ condensed milk

1.) Boil some water in a pot along with the spices.
2.) When the water boils, turn off the stove, and then add the Tea/tea bags
3.) Let the Tea brew for 5-10 minutes. (depending on how strong you want your tea.)
4.) Pour into a glass making sure to strain out anything loose.
5.) Add some cream + sugar or condensed milk
6.) Drink
