Roast Chai Masala is a mellow twist on the classic Indian chai mixture. We've left out the ginger and cardamom and roasted the spices for a beverage that hints at chocolate and coffee when combined with a black tea such as Assam. For for a caffeine-free treat, Rooibos is a good substitution for a black tea.

Use 1 heaping tablespoon of chai spice per 12 oz of water. Simmer for 3-5 minutes then steep with 2-3 teaspoons of black tea for another 3-4 minutes. Add milk and sweetener to taste.
