One of the breville milk frothers: https://www.seriouseats.com/best-milk-frothers-5189329
It's paid for itself since I make my own chai latte's at home every morning. Impulse purchase that I've used every day for years.
How do you do that? Every chai recipe I've looked up has been overly complicated.
I use tea bags, these ones which I find in the international / indian food section of a larger store: https://www.realcanadiansuperstore.ca/tea-masala-chai-bags-special-international-blend-1/p/21050375_EA
I use a big travel mug so I toss 2 tea bags in and fill it about 1/2 way with water. While it steeps I put the milk in the frother and when it's done, squeeze out the bags + pour the milk in. Add sugar as desired.
I've tried various loose leaf chai's but I personally don't find the difference in flavor worth the effort / price compared to these bags. Making it from scratch with spices is a lot of work and I'm way too lazy for that.
Me, this morning, making plain old coffee, "Man, my milk could be frothed right now."
I'm learning I can do it by heating the milk in a saucepan on the stove, then use a whisk to froth the milk until foamy. Maybe I'll try this next time.
I don't need my coffee particularly strong. Maybe I'll try a cafe au lait next time.
