Making Masala Chai
Too busy to make chai? Here is the solution…
On your free day, make about 8 cups of chai following the instructions given for your tea of choice. Allow to cool and store in the fridge in preferably a glass container (metal will react with the spices and change the flavour). Heat up one cup at a time as desired. Or have it chilled on a hot day.
You will have your daily chai!
Bombay Masala Chai Recipe. Makes one cup (Empty Trudy Ann’s Chai spices into a small jar. Store the tea and spices separately)
Directions
Add 1 measuring cup of water and 2 tablespoons of cream into pot and place over high heat.
If you do not use cream, add more milk and less water, keeping the total amount of liquid to about 1 cup per serving of chai.
Add 2 thin slices of fresh ginger (optional- as it can get too spicy).
As it comes to a boil, reduce heat to prevent boiling over and add 1/4 teaspoon of Trudy Ann’s Chai Masala (spice) and 1 teaspoon tea leaves into pot. Adjust heat to keep a gently rolling boil. Gentle stirring is good.
Boil for 2 minutes. (Maximum of 5 minutes for a very strong cup)
Strain immediately into tea cups or tea pot and serve, adding sweetener to taste.
Made with Organic Ingredients: Black tea, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, ginger & pepper. No preservatives, no solvents, no flavouring agents/ no extracts.

How long do you think it’ll keep in the fridge ?
If you are referring to the Chai, if you make it black without the cream, it can last about 5 days in the fridge. If you add unrefined sugar, it will keep a week. I would re-heat the chai and add in the cream right before using it. Hope that answered your questions.
