Chai tea, often simply called chai, is a traditional Indian beverage made by brewing black tea with a blend of aromatic spices, milk, and a sweetener. The word chai actually means “tea” in Hindi, so the phrase “chai tea” technically translates to “tea tea,” but it has become a common term internationally to describe this spiced tea drink.
- Key Elements of Chai
- Black Tea Base: Usually strong varieties like Assam.
- Masala (Spice Blend): Common spices include cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, cloves, and black pepper, though recipes vary widely.
- Milk: Traditionally whole milk, which adds body and creaminess.
- Sweetener: Sugar, jaggery, honey, or other sweeteners to balance the spices.
