Homemade Chai Mix

I just blew through my can of Oh My Chai! from Tastefully Simple. I thought, there must be a way to make this at home in a bigger, cheaper batch. After a little googling and some good reviews I found a recipe that comes close! Allrecipes.com held the best match!


Instant Chai Tea Mix


1 cup nonfat dry milk powder
1 cup powdered non-dairy creamer
1 cup French vanilla flavored powdered non-dairy creamer
2 1/2 cups white sugar
1 1/2 cups unsweetened instant tea
2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground cardamom




Directions:

In a large bowl, combine milk powder, non-dairy creamer, vanilla flavored creamer, sugar and instant tea, then add in the ginger, cinnamon, cloves and cardamom.


(excuse the table scratches... it's very loved on ;))

In a blender, pour in 1 cup at a time. Blend until mix is of a fine powder consistency.




To serve:

Stir 2-3 heaping tablespoons of Chai Tea into a mug of hot water. If you want something creamier you could add the mixture to warm milk as well.



Lastly, store your Chai Mix in an airtight container.


You could keep this all to yourself, share with family, or better yet give as a gift during the holiday season! Enjoy!
