Stovetop Turmeric Chai
teas.co.uk · 8 min · Serves 1
You'll need
- 1 tea bag of Yogi Tea Organic Turmeric 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
- 1 280ml mug, warmed
- 1 small saucepan with lid
- 1 fine sieve for straining
Method
- Warm a mug while you make the chai.
- Pour 150ml of water and 150ml of whole milk into a small pan.
- Add the tea bag, the crushed cardamom pods and a coin of fresh ginger.
- Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat and let it bubble softly for five minutes; do not let it boil hard.
- Take it off the heat, stir in the honey, then strain into the mug.
- Simmer gently, not at a rolling boil; a slow simmer draws out the spice without catching the milk.
