Chiah Tea Recipe


I hope you're all having a great week and enjoying the weather.  A couple weeks ago, I posted our tea party photo shoot.  Today, I thought I would share Adrienne's tea recipe, which can be served warm or iced (considering the weather I'd probably take it iced today).  It's really similar to chai tea.  This particular recipe is from Nepal:

Chiah Tea

Steep:
3 T. black leaves 
5 C. boiling water
6 whole cloves
3 cardamom pods, cracked open and ground, or 1/2 t. ground
2-3 cinnamon sticks


Simmer 10 minutes to blend flavours.  Strain.


Add:

1 1/4 C. milk, heated

1/3 - 2/3 C. sugar


Serve warm or iced 

Enjoy!
