go to your local farmers market or wherever you can get loose leaf tea and get black tea, cardamom, cinnamon sticks, star anise, black pepper, cloves, bishops weed (or fennel bc it’s more common) and some ginger and throw into a pot with some water and add your milk of choice to taste. strain then serve it with some biscuits or leave it in the fridge for on the go iced chai.
it’s like the best hug you can give to yourself
My family has always liked the Ahmad black tea. You can buy them at arabic delis or sometimes eastern european ones. My mom dries black currant leaves or mint leaves to add to it as well, but in a pinch the Ahmad black currant tea smells incredible (i buy this as birthday presents because it normally comes in a small box)
Pro Tip: It tastes so good brewed in a teapot as opposed to by the cup (6 teaspoons for a medium sized teapot)
whenever i’m away from this app i’m like… I have nothing to post. And then it reminds me that maybe i’m a little miserable and infected by haterism and that’s why I can’t think of anything to recommend to all of u fellow friends. reminding myself of things I like n enjoy is kind of like reminding urself of everything ur grateful for :)
