Chai Tea Latte Recipes
Chai, pronounced with a long "i" as in the word tie, is the actual word for 'tea' in many countries. Chai tea is quickly gaining popularity in the West as people are becoming exposed to it as lattes in coffee and tea houses.
The traditional chai-brewing process boils or simmers the tea leaves over sustained heat, instead of steeping them in preheated water as it cools down.
