Frequently Asked Questions
-
Milk tea, or chai, is tea brewed and served with milk and usually sugar, the everyday cup of much of India and South Asia. It can be a simple milk tea or a spiced masala chai, and is typically made with strong black tea (often CTC) that stands up to milk. Comforting and energising, milk tea is a daily ritual enjoyed at home, at roadside stalls, and around the world.
- Tea served with milk and sugar.
- Plain or spiced (masala chai).
- Best made with strong black tea.
-
Strong tea and a gentle simmer make the best cup.
- Brew strong black tea (CTC is ideal) in water.
- Add milk and sugar to taste.
- Bring to a gentle boil and simmer briefly for richness.
- Strain and serve hot; add spices for masala chai.
-
Strong, full-bodied black teas are best, with Assam and CTC black teas being the classic choices because their robust, malty flavour holds up to milk and sugar without being washed out. Delicate teas like Darjeeling or green tea are better enjoyed plain. For a rich, satisfying milky cup, reach for a good Assam or CTC blend, the backbone of traditional Indian chai.
-
Yes, chai works wonderfully with plant-based milks like oat, soy, almond, and coconut, each adding its own flavour and creaminess. Oat and soy tend to froth and blend smoothly, while coconut gives a distinctive richness. Heat gently and watch for splitting with some plant milks. Whether dairy or plant-based, a good strong tea and your preferred sweetness make a comforting cup.
-
Yes, milk tea is made with black tea, so it contains caffeine and makes an energising cup, with the amount depending on the tea and brewing time. It is a popular morning and daytime drink. If you are caffeine-sensitive, enjoy it earlier in the day, use a little less tea, or choose a caffeine-free herbal alternative for the evening.
