AWESOME (AND ECONOMICAL) CHAI CONCENTRATE
If you like the refreshing and spicy taste of chai half as much as I do, then you're going to love how easy and good this is! I make up a batch once of twice a month and then enjoy my chai.

SPICED CHAI CONCENTRATE
From The Tasty Kitchen site with changes for my taste. This is a little sweeter version, so adjust sweetness to taste. Freezable in ice cube trays.

TEA HOUSE CHAI CONCENTRATE
Allen Mayer says at his tea house in Ottawa, Canada, they now serve their own chais. Here's how they do it. For a mocha chai, use chocolate milk instead of white. For herbal chai, replace the Darjeeling with 1 tsp. each of chamomile, fennel seed and peppermint. This can be halved or doubled!

LAUREN'S MASALA CHAI CONCENTRATE
I've spent so much money buying cartons of liquid chai concentrate and have tried many times to make it myself. Well, today I researched ruthlessly and this (which I made up on my own) is the concentrate I've been waiting for! Keep in mind everybody has a different masala chai preference and you should adjust it to your liking - I like a little spice, not too sweet, and an overall balance of flavors. Enjoy!

Steps:
- special note about spices (If you have a bulk foods or Whole Foods or Vitamin Cottage kind of grocer nearby, get the spices from the bulk section. They often cost 25% what you'd pay for a jar! My total ingredients expense was around $1.50, not including the milk!).
- In a medium-large saucepan, bring about 7 cups water to a boil.
- Meanwhile, add the 6 spices (do not add the tea yet).
- Once the water/spice mixture is boiling, add the tea.
- Boil 5 minutes, then remove from heat. (I know you're never supposed to boil tea, but I found this works just fine. If you don't want to boil the tea, just boil the spices for 5 minutes and steep slightly longer.).
- Stir in the brown sugar (or honey) and vanilla.
- Steep for 8 minutes, then strain into a glass container.
- While you wait for it to cool, pour a mug 2/3 full with your chai and add hot milk to the top. (If it isn't spicy or sweet enough, you can still add more spices to steep - just strain the mixture again before storing.) OR for a real treat, use hot evaporated milk (I wouldn't want this every day, because its a little sweeter and creamier than regular milk.).
- Store in the refrigerator for 7 days (maybe longer, but all chai concentrate containers claim 7 days is best). Note: Normally you'd use 1:1 ratio of chai:milk, but I brew it a little weaker and save $ on milk since I drink so much chai.
