Since I drink chai mostly all mornings, I try not to make it too thick.
Light and spiced, accomodating the body and nature's condition for that day.
Recently, since the weather is cold, I like to add some grated ginger.
Recipe for Chai:
1. Pour 1/2 cup of water in pan
2. Add 1 tbspn black tea leaves
3. Add 3 cardamon pods and grate a piece of ginger
4. Pour in 1/2 cup of cow's milk
5. Add 2 tbspn of jaggary (kibi-sugar)
6. Sprinkle in cardamon & nutmeg powder
7. Stir, and let it boil. Turn off heat before the liquid flows out of the pan!
Add cloves for a variety!
Such a warming drink for the cold. Pacifies Vata.
Yesterday I bought wome Saffron and crushed almonds which I plan to use for Badam Milk, a sleeping tonic for evening time!

ReplyDeleteToday I made chai with fresh organic pasteurized milk I got at the natural market. I think I (& my body) felt the difference in taste!
happy to read your reply :) sometimes I get raw milk from a biodynamic farmer and that milk is really yummy... but I would probably use some pasteurized milk from happy grass-fed cows for some chai... I have been craving good chai lately!! xx
