Chai - tea ---------- In a sauce pan with a tight fitting lid combine the following: 8 cups water 6-10 quarter sized slices of fresh ginger root 10-15 cardamom pods, cracked open 1 teaspoon of fennel seeds 4 cloves 1 or 2 pieces of dried orange rind 8-10 black peppercorns Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered for at least 20 minutes. Simmer longer for a richer, spicier flavor. This tea can be sweetened with raw honey. You can also add almond milk or coconut milk or add one green tea bag for a stronger tea. From: Patti Vincent |
