thank you soooooooooo much for this recipe!! I absolutely love chai tea but am very picky about how it’s made; the coffee and tea shops never seem to get the blend quite right. This is PERFECT–I gave it as Christmas gifts to all my girl friends last year and they loved it!!!!!

Thank you so much for this recipe! It is sooo yummy! Tastes just like I buy at my local coffee shop (for $4 a pop)! This is one of my new favorite drink recipes (my other one is the Spiced Tea mix already in the comments). I will be making this many more times

There is some residue in the bottom of the cup and I just haven’t found a good way to remedy that. I just try not to drink that last swallow Sorry I can’t be of more help!

When making a cup of chai, do you have grounds left in the bottom? I use very hot water (just boiled) and stir…but still have some dark bits left in the bottom of my cup. I’m going to try blending the darker ingredients for a bit longer, maybe I didn’t get them fine enough. Any other tips? Thank You! I love the flavor of this chai tea.

Thank you for your comments on the sugar. I got mixed up earlier, with my recipes. Your recipe is the one, I’ve tried & really like. It disappears too quickly…my children like to join me for ‘tea’. I’m a mom to 6.

Making a batch now and realize I’m out of ground cloves. Our WI roads are a bit yucky, from new snow. I’m tempted to leave grn cloves out or put a whole clove in my blender & pulverize it, but I’m not sure how well that will work. I have more than one blender, I’ve upgraded to a BlendTec blender, quite powerful.

Priscilla- I have never tried it with powdered sugar. Putting the sugar in the blender doesn’t make it powdered sugar, it makes it more of a superfine sugar, not really a powder consistency. It just will blend a little easier and dissolve better. I would hesitate to do the confectioner’s sugar in this place because I have no idea what that would taste like and I know the ingredients can be expensive. Happy Holidays!

I’m wondering instead of putting the sugar in the blender, which would turn it into powdered sugar, could I start with powdered sugar? Would that work okay? It would save me the time of having to blend the regular sugar.

I’ve made a similar delicious recipe that I found on HillbillyHousewife, which uses French Vanilla Powdered Non Dairy Creamer. I will be trying your recipe, I think the vanilla pudding would cost less & I’m curious to see how it compares.
