Masala Chai Concentrate

Ingredients

For a quart of concentrate:

  • 4 tablespoons masala chai tea blend*
  • 4 1/2 cups water

For a half gallon of concentrate:

  • 8 tablespoons masala chai tea blend*, or roughly 3/4 cup
  • 9 1/2 cups water

Instructions

  • Add your tea and water to a pot.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring to make sure all the tea gets incorporated
  • Allow the water to boil pretty rapidly for 1-2 minutes, before turning the heat to med-low or low, to where the water is slowly and gently simmering.
  • Allow to simmer for 20-25 minutes, covered.
  • Remove from heat. If you have time, allow the tea to continue to soak in the water for 2-3 hours. When done, strain well and store in the fridge.

To make a Chai latte with concentrate:

  • Mix your chai concentrate in a 1:1 ratio with milk. Heat, if desired, sweeten to taste (I love 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup!), and enjoy!
