Ingredients

• 1 piece Cinnamon stick
• 5 pieces Cardamom pods
• 4 pieces Cloves
• 1 inch piece Ginger, fresh (sliced thinly)
• 6 pieces Black peppercorns
• 1 piece Star anise
• 1 teaspoon Fennel seeds
• 2 teaspoons Rooibos tea (caffeine-free)
• 4 cups Water
• 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)

Directions

Step 1

1. Begin by lightly crushing the cardamom pods, cloves, and black peppercorns using a mortar and pestle or the back of a spoon to release their aroma.

Step 2

2. In a medium-sized pot, combine the water, cinnamon stick, crushed spices, ginger slices, star anise, and fennel seeds. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 3

3. Once the water starts boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the spices simmer gently for about 10 minutes to develop the flavors.

Step 4

4. Add the rooibos tea to the pot and let it steep for an additional 3-5 minutes, depending on the strength you prefer.

Step 5

5. Pour in the almond milk (or milk of choice) and heat it gently, stirring occasionally, until the tea is warm but not boiling.

Step 6

6. Strain the chai tea into mugs using a fine mesh strainer to remove the spices and tea leaves.

Step 7

7. Serve the chai tea immediately, and optionally sweeten with a natural sugar-free sweetener such as stevia or monk fruit if desired.
