One tablespoon into a basic black tea created a really lovely, sweet, creamy instant cup o’ chai. A lot of people couldn't believe how incredibly delicious the beverage was, far less bitter (and cheaper!) than the Tazo tea from Starbucks, and not quite as sweet as the Oregon Chai mix found on most store shelves. I adjusted the spices a bit to suit my sisters tastes so she could have her own perfect blend and you should feel free to do the same. Best of all, the little effort I put into making this yielded enough concentrate for nearly a month’s worth of tea. The remaining half a mason jar is currently in my refrigerator.
Now I know this isn't a recipe kids can drink all the time but it is delicious and easy for them to help create. I find that a little on the weekends is a wonderful treat for my son and since it doesn't have a lot of bad things, not too much sugar and not harsh on the body, I let him have a cup.
