Recipe 2, Concentrate -

Step 1) Bring to boil and simmer very low for 45 minutes to 2 hours:

5 Tablespoons Rainforest Chai Masala*

8-10 Cups spring water

Step 2) Add 1/2 to 1 cup room temp water, and 6 to 10 Tablespoons of raw honey or other natural sweetener to taste - stir in well.

Step 3) Allow to cool slightly and pour through strainer into large glass storage bottle. Store in refrigerator. NOTE: this concoction becomes very thick and almost syrup-like, so take a few extra moments and capture all the chai juices before discarding the chai tea leaves.

When ready to use, combine 1 part concentrate with 1 part milk (or other creamer) depending on taste, heat and serve.
