Chai Fun Facts
Chai, which means tea in Hindi, is often made with a blend of spices known as masala, including cardamom, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves, making it more of a spiced beverage than plain tea.
Chai is traditionally served in small glasses or clay cups in India, allowing the drink to cool quickly, so it's enjoyed hot without burning the tongue.
