Product Information

For the contemporary tea enthusiast who appreciates innovation, elegance and style, our glass teapots are perfect. The allure lies in their ability to showcase the dance of tea leaves as they steep, allowing you to watch the water transform into a vibrant hue as you witness the unfolding beauty of the brewing process. Loose leaf or tea bags? Loose leaf tea will be stronger and usually higher it quality than tea in bags. But tea bags are easy to work with. So, it's really up to you.

Adjust the water to milk ratio to your taste. This comes with practise. You can go with the ratio in this recipe and change it up to your personal preference. Hi Annie! Glad you’ll be using this recipe, be sure to look at the additional notes section to make sure that the spice level works for you! In America, masala chai has just morphed into just "chai," which is a misnomer. Masala chai means "spiced tea" in Hindi, and chai just means tea. So, saying "chai tea" is like saying "tea tea." The Best Spices to Use in Chai TeaOur inspired version begins by lightly crushing the spices in a mortar and pestle (or a cutting board and heavy pan will do!). I have a friend who opened a cyber cafe in India, in 2000. I was very impressed with the facility. It consisted of cubicles with a chai vendor. The "chaiwala" as we called him came around to ask if you wanted a cup of chai. It was more like a "shot" of chai but I can't tell you how tasty that shot was! Our chai pots are vital to your chai making set up! They are perfect for brewing your chai traditionally on the stove so that you can show off your new chai skills! Chai brewed on the stovetop gives you a more deeper, spicier brew, as you are literally cooking the tea and spices in with the water and milk. Whilst it may seem like a lot of extra effort, you can actually make a delicious chai in under 5 minutes (about a long as it takes to boil the kettle and brew a cup of tea using a teabag). Dad: Thanks for sharing all these recipes with me so I can share them with everyone else! We're finally getting around to making the family cookbook. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, our teapots feature the heat-resistant properties of borosilicate glass to ensure that your tea remains at the optimal temperature, while the ergonomic handles make pouring effortless and spill-free.

Chai is pronounced "Cha" in my house, which is a Gujarati word, and it's made a countless number of times. Growing up, I felt like I was a barista in my own house! No Joke, I made cha all day long it seemed. Perhaps, that's why my recipe has been perfected throughout the years. I think my Mom had a total of 5 cha pots at any one given time.

Sugar - regular granulated sugar is commonly used to sweeten chai. You can use brown sugar or jaggery as well.

How to Make Chai Tea The main ingredients to make Masala Tea are very basic and pretty much the same in all recipes. What varies is the quantity of spices or add-ons to flavor the tea. Some like to add lots of ginger, others lots of cardamom and others may prefer only whole spices. Combined with an extra fine chai strainer and a eco-friendly cup made of coffee husk (available in our Starter Boxes ), you’ll be making unparalleled chai teas in no time at all. The first time my daughter and I made the tea and with great anticipation and in fact, squeals of excitement…and upon taking our first sips, ran together to the sink to spew it out. It made for great laughs. BUT the second try, we followed the directions carefully and are IN LOVE!!! This is even better than Bollywood!
