Before you jump to Masala Chai Tea recipe, you may want to read this short interesting healthy tips about Use Food to Elevate Your Mood.

Most of us have been taught to believe that comfort foods are not good and should be avoided. At times, if your comfort food is essentially candy or other junk foods, this can be true. Otherwise, comfort foods can be very nourishing and good for you. There are some foods that, when you consume them, could better your mood. If you feel a little bit down and you’re needing an emotional pick me up, try some of these.

Build a trail mix out of seeds and/or nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etc are all good for raising your mood. This is because seeds and nuts have a lot of magnesium which boosts your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is known as the “feel good” chemical substance and it tells your brain how you should be feeling at all times. The more of this chemical in your brain, the more pleasant you’ll feel. Not only that but nuts, particularly, are a terrific protein food source.

As you can see, you don’t need to eat junk food or foods that are bad for you so you can feel better! Try a few of these instead!

We hope you got insight from reading it, now let’s go back to masala chai tea recipe. You can have masala chai tea using 9 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you cook it.

The ingredients needed to cook Masala Chai Tea:
  1. You need 5-6 cardamon pods
  2. Provide 1/2 cinnamon stick
  3. Take 2 star anise
  4. Get 4 cloves (optional)
  5. You need sliced ginger
  6. Provide 2-3 tsp lose leaves black tea (I am using 3 tsp)
  7. You need 2 cups water
  8. Provide 2 cups milk
  9. Get Sweetener of your choice
Steps to make Masala Chai Tea:
  1. Lightly crushed cardamon and star anise, break the cinnamon stick into half (the spices will release its flavour faster during the process if you do this step)
  2. Put black tea leaves and spices in a sauce pan (or you can put all these in a teabag like me). Add the water and bring to boil, let it simmer for 10 minutes (medium to high heat), until tea looks really dark/concentrated. If you are using normal tea bags, use 3 or 4. The tea needed to be strong as you will add a lot of milk later.
  3. Add in milk, and let it simmer for another 10-15 minutes until tea look reduced.
  4. Turned off the heat and pour your masala chai to a mug with a strainer.
  5. Add your sweetener of choice and adjust to your liking (I am using brown sugar). Enjoy your fresh brewed masala chai tea.
  6. Note: Add more milk and less water if you want a richer/creamier taste. Or add less milk and more water if you want it less richer/creamier. I haven't tried it with plant based milk, but I am sure it should be fine too.
