teas.co.uk · 8 min · Serves 1

You'll need

• 1 tea bag of Yogi Tea Organic Classic Chai
• 150ml freshly drawn water at 100C, just off the boil
• 150ml whole milk
• 2 whole green cardamom pods, lightly crushed open
• 1 thin coin of fresh root ginger, peeled
• 1 teaspoon of clear honey

Method

1. Pour the water and milk into a small saucepan.
2. Drop in the tea bag, the crushed cardamom pods and the ginger coin.
3. Bring to a slow, gentle simmer over medium heat for five minutes; do not let it boil hard or the milk will catch.
4. Take off the heat and stir in the honey.
5. Pass the chai through a fine sieve into a mug that has been warmed.
6. Tip: for a stronger, spicier cup, simmer a couple of minutes longer or add an extra cardamom pod.
