PEPPERMINT CHAI TEA

Peppermint Chai Tea image

This is a different sort of chai, from John Robbins' "May All Be Fed". I love that book's recipes and so am posting this even though I haven't tried it yet- it's sure to be good!

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

4 cups water
1 tablespoon cardamom pod
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
1 teaspoon whole cloves
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
1 cinnamon stick (3 inches long)
4 peppermint tea bags or 4 teaspoons loose peppermint tea
pure maple syrup
vanilla soymilk or plain soymilk

Steps:

In a medium saucepan, combine the water and spices.
Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Immediately reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
Remove from the heat and add the peppermint tea. Cover the pan and let steep for 3 to 5 minutes; the longer you leave it, the stronger the tea will be.
Strain out the spices and tea. Serve immediately, letting each person add syrup and soy milk to their taste.
