Great chai. The flavor and spicyness was just what I was looking for. It was not creamy enough for me. Next time I might try with 1 cup of water and 2 cups of whole milk. To make it more like a chai latte. Thank you!

This recipe is great, I've been searching for a good masla chai recipe for awhile. After using ground spices I finally decided to pick up some whole spices and it made all the difference. Here are some modifications to the recipe that I enjoy: I grind the cloves a bit along with like 5 peppercorns I use 1 tablespoon of honey instead of 1/4 cup of sugar I don't have cardamom pods yet but I use 1/2 tablespoon of cardamom powder I also add approx. 5 mint leaves I use soymilk instead of cow milk!

This was a lovely chai that I will make again. I doubled the recipe but kept the milk the same for personal preference as we are not fans. I also only added 1/3 cup of sugar to the doubled recipe and still found it a touch too sweet - next time I think I will double the recipe and leave both the sugar and milk at the original levels. Thanks for posting! EDIT: I am updating this to 5 stars as this is the best chai recipe on 'zaar and I have tried a lot of them. The only thing I would change is adding peppercorns and ginger next time.
