This is an easy recipe for Chai tea that can be served hot or cold! For an added boost, try adding a shot of espresso or instant coffee to make a dirty Chai :) Ingredients:
1 cup nonfat dry milk powder |
1 cup non-dairy powdered coffee creamer |
1 1/4 cups white sugar |
3 teaspoons vanilla extract |
1 1/4 cups granulated baking splenda artificial sweetener |
2 cups unsweetened instant tea |
2 teaspoons ground ginger |
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon |
1 teaspoon ground cloves |
1 teaspoon ground cardamom |
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
Directions:
1. Mix 3 teaspoons vanilla extract into the sugar, mix well with a fork. 2. Next, fold the splenda into the vanilla/sugar mix, combining well. Let the mix dry, then break the sugar mix back into small lumps. 3. In a large bowl, combine milk powder, non-dairy creamer, vanilla sugar mix, and instant tea. 4. Stir in ginger, cinnamon, cloves and cardamom. 5. In a blender or food processor, blend 1°C at a time, until mixture is the consistency of fine powder. 6. To serve: Stir 2 heaping Tbs. Chai tea mixture into a mug of hot water. For iced chai, mix the 2 Tbsp Chai mix with a bit of hot water until the mix dissolves, then add cold water or milk plus ice & shake or stir well. |
