Indian Masala Chai Mix

When i make Indian Masala Chai , i do with fresh ingridients like ginger, cinamon etc....... the idea of the event was that we make something which we can keep under the christmas tree as a present and fresh Chai that u can't do can we :-)

This i made for zlamushka's event A spoonful of Christmas and the deadline is tommorow , so i had to hurry up in making this.

I am going to give this as a present for my Mother in law, she likes the Indian spice tea and she buys the ready made one we get in the shops.
So i thought why not make this for her which will be far far better than the shop bought one ( I hope).

I made them yesterday I will have to keep it for atleast a week or two before giving it to her , by then all the spices would have really blended well with the tea leaves.

Tea and the spices

Mix everything

Ready to deliver :-)
