Punjabi Masala Chai – Spiced Assam Tea, 100 g | The Vintage Hill Teas

Punjabi masala chai built on Assam leaf with the spice mix used in Punjabi homes, packed in 100 g. It is made for the stovetop method where milk and water are boiled hard together, and it is already spiced, so there is nothing to grind or add. The cup is warm and naturally sweet from the spices themselves. Key Features Assam leaf blended with Punjabi chai masala Tasting notes: naturally sweet with warm spice notes Caffeine: high Made for the Indian boiling style, not for steeping Spices are already in the blend, so it is a three-step chai How to Brew Boil water in a pan, add roughly one teaspoon of the blend per cup and let it darken, then pour in milk and bring it back to a full boil once or twice depending on how strong you like it. Strain into cups and sweeten to taste. Longer boiling pulls more spice out of the blend, so adjust the time rather than the quantity. Product Details Net quantity: 100 g Type: loose leaf spiced Assam black tea Storage: airtight, away from heat and moisture Good to Know Contains whole and ground spices, so the aroma is strongest when the pack is first opened Spice pieces settle to the bottom; shake the pack before measuring FAQs How is it different from the Bombay chai? This one is rounder and warmer across its spice mix, while the Bombay blend leans heavily on cardamom and ginger. Can I brew it without milk? You can, and it works as a strong black spiced tea, but it is blended for the boiled milk method and tastes fuller that way. Do I need to add ginger or cardamom? No. The spices are already infused into the blend, which is the point of it. How many cups does 100 g give? Roughly 50 cups at a teaspoon per cup, fewer if you brew it strong.
