Pretty easy for a great take on Chai!
What you need:
1 cinnamon stick
1 piece fresh ginger
7 whole cardamom pods
2 whole star anise pods
10 whole cloves
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon orange zest
10 organic green or black tea bags
4 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup honey
1 Tablespoon vanilla
Bring the water to a boil, add all the spices and the tea bags. Remove from heat, cover and let steep for 15 minutes. Strain.
Add the honey and vanilla and mix well.
When cool, pour into a jar and store in the fridge. When you want some chai, use one part tea to one part milk or half and half, either hot or over ice. If you want it stronger, use 2 parts tea to one part milk.
The concentrate will keep for about 2 weeks in the fridge.
