Chocolaty Chai

This sweet and spiced chai is a cross between gingery masala chai and rich hot cocoa—truly the best of both cozy drink worlds. This recipe uses a blend of ginger, green cardamom, and cinnamon to invoke the classic flavors of masala chai but feel free to play with the spices to your liking. As always with chai, using a good quality black tea is imperative for a strongly steeped tea. We recommend PG Tips or Tetley British Blend tea bags. To bring out those floral chocolaty notes, we add vanilla extract for aroma and honey to sweeten.
