INSTRUCTIONS
Chai is Indian version of tea with cream and sugar. You can make it Indian
style as follows: Boil a cup of water and milk mixture, and sugar to it.
You can use less water and more milk to make it creamier. (All milk is okay
too.) Dip in a regular Lipton tea bag for a minute. Longer you dip it, the
stronger (and bitter) is the chai.
If you want ginger tea, buy fresh ginger root, chop a very small piece (a
gram or so) and put it in boiling mixture before dipping the tea bag. You
can use cardamom (sp ?) powder instead of ginger too.
