Anyone? Anyone?

I seem to make it up each time i brew some up, adding random amounts of random spices. With enough sugar and soy milk it always tastes the same anyway, just sometimes it makes the mouth go more numb than others

Try honey instead of sugar, and use lots of fresh ginger.

If we as members of the human race practice meditation, we can transcend our fear, despair, and forgetfulness. Meditation is not an escape. It is the courage to look at reality with mindfulness and concentration. Thich Nhat Hanh

I second the honey and ginger. A very light touch of cayenne pepper, too. And for fun, try making it with jasmine tea instead of regular black tea.

E pluribus unum, baby.

Hi Flid,

Here's a great website with loads of different recipes on it. It's the site I got the recipe from that BamBam now uses for her "special" chai tea. Though, cos I'm a girl.....I can't remember which one we used! Doh...

Good Chai Tea

Hope you enjoy!

Live well, love much, laugh often...

It's probably the nutmeg that gives you the numb feeling so if you enjoy that particular sensation just add more! Also lots of cloves are nice (good anaesthetic)! Mmm, me love chai!
