Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 1 cup Water
- 1 piece Black tea bag
- 2 tablespoons Instant coffee or freshly brewed strong coffee
- 1 piece Cinnamon stick
- 2 pieces Green cardamom pods, lightly crushed
- 2 pieces Cloves, whole
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 6 pieces Ice cubes
- 2 tablespoons Whipped cream (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cinnamon or cocoa powder for garnish (optional)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of water, cinnamon stick, green cardamom pods, and cloves, and bring to a gentle boil over medium heat.
Add the black tea bag and lower the heat to simmer for 3-4 minutes to allow the spices and tea to infuse.
Remove the saucepan from heat and strain the spiced tea into a large bowl to remove solids.
Add 1 cup of milk, sugar, and coffee to the warm spiced tea. Stir well until the sugar dissolves, then allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
Refrigerate the mixture for at least 1 hour or until chilled thoroughly.
Fill two tall glasses with ice cubes. Pour the chilled chai coffee mixture over the ice, dividing it evenly between the glasses.
Top with whipped cream if desired and garnish with a sprinkle of ground cinnamon or cocoa powder for an extra touch.
Serve immediately with a straw or stirrer and enjoy your Indian Chai Iced Coffee!
