Notes
Tips to make the Best Chai Masala Powder
Whole Spices: use whole spices to get the best results.
Roasting Spices: I have roasted the whole spices to elevate the flavors and to eliminate moisture in spices if any. However, it is not mandatory to roast the spices before grinding them to a powder.
For perfect flavor and taste: Always follow the exact measurements and ingredients used in the recipe to make perfect tea.
Serving Quantity: Add ¼ teaspoon of Chai masala powder to every cup of tea.
Dont have a Spice Grinder? Then use a mortar and pestle to make chai masala powder. It may result in coarsely ground spices.
WholeNutmeg: If making in a big batch, do not add the whole nutmeg to the spice grinder as it can damage the blade. Crush it or grate the nutmeg using a cheese grater before adding.
