Masala Tea (indian Spiced Tea)

This is wonderfully heady and comforting, and perfect with an Indian meal. I've made it as directed, but also have a coffeemaker I use just for tea, and most often make it in that. I'll just put the spices in a coffee filter with the tea, then throw a cardamom pod in each cup when I serve it. It's great cold too (but I prefer it hot, with a little sugar)

15 min 5 min prep

2 tablespoons darjeeling tea (see note below)
8 white cardamom pods or green cardamom pods
2 inches cinnamon sticks
4 whole cloves
5 cups cold water
sugar or honey or milk, to taste

Warm your teapot by rinsing it with boiling water.
Place the tea& spices in the teapot.
Boil the 5 cups of water and pour over the tea& spices.
Let steep for 5 minutes, stir, and serve with a cardamom pod added to each cup.
Add sugar, honey and/or milk to taste.
NOTES:.
You can substitute Assam or Ceylon tea for the darjeeling, and can use teabags instead (1 or 2 per cup of water, depending on how strong you like your tea).
If using a coffeemaker, 4 teabags for a 10-cup pot seems to work perfectly

You can make tea masala powder by placing ginger powder, cloves, star anise, and cardamom in a spice grinder. For the best result, add the masala powder to the tea while it is boiling, strain before you serve.
