Chai Tea Concentrate

Chai tea at home, check! The next best thing? Licking that can of condensed milk clean! I found the recipe here and tweaked the spices/sugar content to my liking. 

(Penzeys is my favorite spice shop.)

1, 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon cardamom
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cloves
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ginger

Empty condensed milk into a jar with a tight fitting lid. Stir in the spices.

To use: Brew a cup of strong black tea, then add two heaping teaspoons of concentrate or more to taste. Stir well until concentrate has fully melted.

To give: Pour into small jars with lids and tie with an attractive bow, or wrap the jar first. Attach a tag with instructions to keep the mix refrigerated and how to use it.

To keep: Store in refrigerator for up to 6 months.


See ya later, Starbucks!
