Chai is an ancient Indian drink that has been enjoyed for centuries. There are different variants of Chai mixtures and the added spices on which Chai is based may also vary slightly. But there is a very essential spice that must be added to call this drink Chai - namely cardamom.

The traditional Chai is typically based on cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, tea and milk. A little sweet is also added to emphasize the robust flavors of the spices.
