My Homemade Chai Tea Recipe

Hello! Thanks for stopping by to read about my own homemade chai tea recipe! This recipe will make 8-10 cups of tea, so if you only want to make half that many, I rewrote the recipe down below for easy access. Well let’s get started!

Ingredients for full batch:

• 1 tsp of cardamom
• 1 tsp of cinnamon
• 1 tsp of ginger
• 1 tsp of ground cloves
• 1 tea bag (of normal black tea)
• Amount of the sweetener of your choice (I use a tiny sprinkle of stevia)
• 1 splash of heavy whipping cream (One splash per cup of tea)

Ingredients for half batch:

• 1/2 tsp of cardamom
• 1/2 tsp of cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp of ginger
• 1/2 tsp of ground cloves
• 1/2 of one tea bag (You can make tea with the remaining half, or throw it away)
• Amount of sweetener of your choice
• 1 splash of heavy whipping cream

Instructions for making the tea mixture:

• Get a small air-tight container to keep your tea in. Mix all of the spices, as well as the contents from inside the tea bag.

Instructions for making the tea:

• Measure 1/2 tsp of tea/spice mixture and put it into an empty mug
• Pour hot water into the mug
• Let tea mixture steep for 2-4 minutes
• If preferred strain out tea/spice mixture with cheese cloth or a coffee filter, otherwise you can drink it with the spices still inside.
• Add in sweetener and heavy whipping cream

If you’re looking for a variation, try adding some ice, for an iced chai!

I hope your homemade tea turns out, and stay tuned for future recipes!
