Bold Assam CTC black tea that brews dark and fast. Masala with six whole spices, or cardamom on its own. Each resealable 150 g pouch makes 30 cups.
Both start with the same strong Assam CTC. The difference is the spice.
Pure Assam tea and warming whole spices.
Cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, nutmeg, clove and black pepper, brewed with milk the way masala chai is made at home in India. It brews dark, so it stands up to plenty of milk.
Ingredients: Assam black tea, cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, nutmeg, clove, black pepper.
Bold Assam tea and fragrant real cardamom.
Cardamom is the only spice, so the cup is softer and cleaner than masala chai: the elaichi chai many Indian homes start the day with.
Ingredients: Assam black tea, cardamom.
Masala for the mornings you want spice, cardamom for the ones you don’t. Any two pouches are $34.99, shipping included.
1 tbsp (5 g) chai · ½ cup hot water · ½ cup milk
This is the method printed on the back of every pouch.
1 level tablespoon (about 5 g) for every cup
Boil the chai in water, add milk, bring it up to a boil three times, then strain. About eight minutes, and the strongest cup you can make with it.
