Ingredients
- 300 ml water
- 6 tablespoons Enrico's Full Cream Milk Powder (approximately 45–50 g)
- 2–2½ teaspoons Hi Top CTC Tea
- 1 small piece fresh ginger (approximately 2 cm), crushed
- 3 green cardamom pods, lightly crushed
- 1 small cinnamon stick
- 2 cloves
- 2 black peppercorns (optional)
- 2–3 teaspoons sugar, or to taste
How to Make Enrico's Masala Chai
Step 1: Prepare the Spices
Lightly crush the fresh ginger, cardamom pods, cloves and black peppercorns to release their natural aroma and flavour.
Step 2: Boil the Spices
Pour 250 ml of water into a saucepan. Add the crushed spices and cinnamon stick. Bring to a boil and allow to simmer for 3–4 minutes.
Step 3: Brew the Hi Top Tea
Add 2–2½ teaspoons of Hi Top CTC Tea to the boiling spiced water. Simmer for approximately 2 minutes until the tea develops a rich, deep colour and releases its bold aroma.
Step 4: Prepare the Enrico's Milk
In a separate cup, mix 6 tablespoons of Enrico's Full Cream Milk Powder with the remaining 50 ml of warm water. Stir thoroughly until smooth and free from lumps.
Step 5: Combine and Simmer
Slowly pour the prepared Enrico's milk into the brewed tea. Add sugar according to your preference. Stir well and simmer gently for another 2–3 minutes to allow the flavours to blend.
If the chai becomes too thick, add a little hot water to achieve your preferred consistency.
Step 6: Strain and Serve
Strain the Masala Chai through a fine tea strainer into serving cups. Serve immediately while hot and enjoy its rich, creamy texture and aromatic flavour.
