We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Perhaps it takes a purer faith to praise God for unrealized blessings than for those we once enjoyed or those we enjoy now.

INSTRUCTIONS

SPICES
Here is the method of how to make chai as you requested:
1. Add water in pan.
2. Add sugar, tea leaves and spices.
3. Bring to boil and simmer for a minute or so.
4. Add milk.
5. Bring to boil and simmer for 3-5 minutes.
6. Strain tea in teapot.
To make chai for one person, one needs: 1 cup of water, see 1. above.  1
teaspoon of sugar, 1 teaspoon of tea leaves and 1/4 teaspoon of spices, see
2. above. (depending on how sweet, strong and spicy) 1/4 cup of milk, see
4. above. (depending on how milky)
NOTE: this tea is made with water but equally can be made with milk.
Spices can generally be proportioned as follows: A. 1 one 1.5 inch
cinnamon stick. B. 3-4 cardamoms (with shell). C. 2-3 peppercorns. D. 2-3
cloves E. 1/2 teaspoon of ginger powder.
Grind into a powder the items A-D and add E.
In winter fresh ginger chai is very good, add 1cm2 chopped ginger with the
spices.  Can also add pepper at the same time to give a warm feeling.
The spice list I mentioned is not complete.  We usually add about 10 to 12
different types of spices for chai ground together.  I am sorry I do not
know the names of them in English.
