Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the black tea leaves and powdered milk. Add the sugar and all the ground spices: cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, cloves, nutmeg, allspice, and black pepper.
Mix Thoroughly: Stir the mixture thoroughly with a spoon or whisk until all ingredients are well combined and evenly distributed.
Store: Transfer the spiced chai mix into clean, dry glass jars with tight-fitting lids for storage.
To Prepare a Cup of Chai: Add 2 tablespoons of the mix to a cup of hot water or hot milk. Stir well until the powder is dissolved, and enjoy!
Variations & Tips
For a caffeine-free version, substitute the black tea leaves with rooibos tea.
You can also adjust the sweetness by using less sugar or a sugar substitute to your preference.
For a creamier chai, add more powdered milk to the mix or use a non-dairy creamer when preparing your cup.
Feel free to experiment with the spice levels to suit your taste—add more ginger for a spicier kick, or extra cinnamon for a sweeter, more aromatic blend.
