A friend of mine just recently told me her Indian ex-in-laws used to make chai with a cardamom pod or two and a Lipton tea bag!
LOL are you serious! Well I guess even in India people take the easy way out!
I guess so. I have been told that the most popular coffee in Turkey is not Turkish Coffee, but Nescafe.
LOL maybe my client was BSing me :)
I guess it’s an Assam-which I thought was usually used to make Masala Chai.
Yup with the right Masala spices which she also gave me a couple of packs of. Great for a meat rub too.
The thing is that every chai wallah uses their own recipe to make chai, so it isn’t reliant upon any one particular tea brand. Most traditional chai blends use Assam, but even that isn’t the only chai used to make a chai blend, as some use Nilgiri instead, and still others use Ceylon.
