I'm posting this to participate in the Second Annual Bloggy Progressive Dinner. Stop back all week for great recipe ideas!
Chai Tea
I originally found this recipe here. I accidentally added less of one ingredient and too much of another last time I made this last time and it really didn't change the flavor at all. So, if you are adventurous you could be creative with this one or make it as is.
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
1. In a large bowl, combine milk powder, non-dairy creamer, vanilla flavored creamer, sugar and instant tea.
2. Stir in ginger, cinnamon, cloves and cardamom.
3. In a blender or food processor, blend 1 cup at a time. Mixture should be the consistency of fine powder.
To serve: Stir 2 to 3 heaping tablespoons of Chai tea mixture into a mug of hot water.

My husband loves chai tea- this sounds great! Also sounds like a fun gift idea. Thanks for sharing and linking up!
Sounds lovely. We drink a lot of water around here. This would be a special treat. :)
I made this for my husband a while ago and we really liked it, but I was not able to find the instant unsweetened tea, so I use sweetened iced tea mix and decreased the sugar. Is the instant tea usually with the regular brewed tea? Thanks!
Butterfly Momma: I used Nestea Instant Tea mix.
