Best Indian Spiced Hot Tea Masalla Tea Recipes
MASALA TEA (INDIAN SPICED TEA)
This is wonderfully heady and comforting, and perfect with an Indian meal. I've made it as directed, but also have a coffeemaker I use just for tea, and most often make it in that. I'll just put the spices in a coffee filter with the tea, then throw a cardamom pod in each cup when I serve it. It's great cold too (but I prefer it hot, with a little sugar)

Steps:
- Warm your teapot by rinsing it with boiling water.
- Place the tea& spices in the teapot.
- Boil the 5 cups of water and pour over the tea& spices.
- Let steep for 5 minutes, stir, and serve with a cardamom pod added to each cup.
- Add sugar, honey and/or milk to taste.
- NOTES:.
- You can substitute Assam or Ceylon tea for the darjeeling, and can use teabags instead (1 or 2 per cup of water, depending on how strong you like your tea).
- If using a coffeemaker, 4 teabags for a 10-cup pot seems to work perfectly.
