Simple Spiced Chai

This is how I make chai when I need something warm that makes me feel enveloped in comfort without the added calories of my former addiction: hot chocolate. It's spicier (in a warming way that is very soothing) and lighter in taste than any chai from a coffee shop. The method is also quite authentic. If you can, make sure to use fresh, whole cardamom pods, whole cloves, and freshly ground black pepper. You can also add a couple of drops of vanilla extract or use a very small amount of fresh ginger. The recipe is calculated with four teaspoons of sugar, but it is completely up to you.

It was very good but in the future I think I will saut� the vegetables first as they were still crunchy after simmering for 45 minutes. Also I added 1/2 teaspoon of salt. - 2/15/16

I served this as is - delicious! A part from the green pepper, I thought I'd stuck to the recipe but as I look back, I realize I forgot to add the onion (fool!) Still, it was full of flavour and very filling! Delicious. Will make again. - 9/4/13
