General Chai Directions

Directions
Makes two 8 oz cups of chai tea.
Steep using a tea pot, tea ball, strainer or French press. Note that a French press may not stop extraction when you press the plunger down, so you may want to decant the liquid right after plunging.
(1) Choose one chai spice compound and one tea from your chai kit.
(2) If using two separate pots:
Steep 2 tsp (10 ml) of chai spice compound in 8 oz (1 cup) boiling water for 10+ mins. Steep 2 tsp of tea in 8 oz (1 cup) hot to boiling water for 1-5 mins. Mix the liquids 1:1.
If using one pot:
Steep 2 tsp (10 ml) of chai spice compound in 16 oz (2 cups) of boiling water for 5+ minutes. Add 2 tsp (10 ml) of tea and steep for another 1-5 minutes.
(3) For traditional chai, add milk and sugar. For a refreshing change, try without the milk or sugar. You can even try the spice compound water without the tea!
