When the darkness seem to steal more and more of your daylight, and the shivering cold gets right to you (or maybe you have one sunny day after another, what do I know) - either way you can’t go wrong with a nice cup of Chai to warm you up. Chai is a sweet flavorful drink spiced with ginger, cloves, nutmeg and cinnamon. You can buy black Chai tea at your local teashop, however occasionally I prefer this version which is sweet and creamy. Most people get their dose of this type of Chai at their local coffee shop, or they buy an expensive package at the grocery store. However there is no need for that, because you can make a wonderful mix at home, that is oh so good and also much cheaper.
This Chai drink mix also makes a lovely gift for family, friends, neighbors, teachers and other people that you want to give a holiday greeting to. Divide a batch into mason jars, top with a piece of cheese cloth (like on the picture) or any other pretty fabric. Attach a nice note, and you’re set to go. It’s certainly an unexpected gift, but it will be very appreciated. However maybe you would just like to keep it all to yourself, and there is certainly nothing wrong with that, because it's quite nice to have around. Chai Mix Recipe
