Kadak Chai

‘Chai garam’ invokes all kinds of feelings within Indians – nostalgia, warmth, comfort, energy, and home. Kadak chai is more than a ritual—it’s a moment of pure bliss. If you live away from home, brew a cup in the microwave to help recreate that feeling of belonging. And once you’ve mastered this, you’ll be impressing friends and family in no time.

Method

In the microwave-safe bowl, add tea powder (2 tsp), milk (150 ml), sugar (1 tsp), tea masala, ginger, and elaichi (as per your taste) to water (50 ml).
Set the microwave to MEDIUM for 5 minutes.
Strain the tea and serve hot.
