Vanilla Chai Tea
This warm chai is comfort in a cup. It’s extra special with a dollop of fresh whipped cream and a sprinkling of ground allspice on top. —Taste of Home Test Kitchen

Really liked it. I am so happy for the Internet that we can look up these recipes like this one.
EXCELLENT HOT BEVERAGE. MY FRIEND FROM INDIA SAYS, IT'S PERFECT...MUST USE THE PEPPERCORNS FOR AUTHENTICITY.
Loved it! I only had ground cardamom on hand so I substituted with 1/4 t. instead of 2 pods.
Where can I purchase cardamom pods?
I had never heard of using peppercorns in Chai before. Maybe that was what I always missed when making mine....anyway, its delicous. Please give it a try. You won't be sorry!!
