Now that it’s getting colder I feel like it’s time to post about chai spells!
✨ Basic recipe for chai
✨
– ¾ mug of milk (or milk alternative) – ¼ mug of water – Any tea that goes with milk (so no green or fruit teas) – Sugar or honey to taste
Heat up your milk, water and sweetener, once boiling whisk in your tea. If using black or milk oolong tea then do not exceed 45 seconds of stirring – it seems like a small amount of time but your chai will be bitter if you go over this time! Any tea other than black tea would be alright for a bit longer, but you shouldn’t need much time at all!
Pour the chai through a strainer and serve! Drink this while hot for the best flavour (though it doesn’t taste bad if it gets cold either)

For the following spells, use the milk, water and sweetner and then add the tea specified! Feel free to personalise your blends!
