SC - A Chai Question

To make proper "chai", boil some black tea, cinnamon stick, a few cardamom
pods, one or two cloves with water for five to ten minutes.  Add some
sweetened condensed milk, strain and rink warm or over ice.  This is how the
Indians (of which I am one) make it.

The brand I buy is supposed to be mixed with an equal amount of milk and
served over ice. Or frothed with an equal amount of milk and served hot as a
"chai latte".  I haven't tried it straight, but I imagine it would be
disgustingly too strong and sweet.


There is a black tea version and a green tea version.  I much prefer the
black.  It's what I had first and liked, so the green tastes weird.
