It's the most wonderful time of year for CHAI!!! And guess what, you can do it yourself!
Here's a surprisingly easy way to make your own Apple Cider Chai Tea at home.
WHAT YOU'LL NEED:
1 - A pot for the stove top or a crock pot if you want to avoid the risk of leaving a pot on the stove top. Crockpots work great for parties!
2 - Large loose leaf infuser - we have found that this capsule infuser works best for this method since it can secure the loose leaf into the infuser with the lid tightly sealed. It also has a handy hook that can rest on the side of your pot as the cider simmers.
2 - Your Favorite Leaf Logic Chai - Kansas Sunset Chai, Country Chai Spice, or Tiger Fire Chai - or grab the Chai Trio Variety Pack so you have them all! We have found that Kansas Sunset Chai and Tiger Fire Chai work best for this method!
3 - Apple Cider depending on how much you want to make, but I used an entire gallon.
STEPS FOR MAKING APPLE CIDER CHAI:
1 - Place loose leaf secure into your infuser with the lid on tight (1 tsp of loose leaf tea per 8 oz of Apple Juice… since we used the whole gallon, we put in 16 teaspoons (about 5-6 Tablespoons). And place the infuser into your pot on the stove top or into your crockpot!
2 - Pour apple cider into the pot, pour over your infuser and bring to a simmer.
3 - Let the deliciousness steep on simmer for at least 15 minutes. The longer you leave in, the more robust your chai will taste and OH HOW DELICIOUS your house will smell!! This is a fantastic way to greet your guests as they arrive for a dinner party, or even just a fun surprise for the kids when they get home from school! You will love the responses right when people walk in the door!!! . Be careful, the metal handle of the infuser will be hot, so use hot pads if you want to move it around or remove it.
4 - Take a ladle and spoon a serving into your favorite mug. Still be very careful! It is very hot!
5 - Enjoy your wonderful world which now has a yummy cup of Apple Cider Chai! If you are having a party, you can keep simmering and even add a bit more cider to your pot as the chai simmers through the evening!
It's THAT simple!! Now you can join me for a perfect fall chai moment!!
