| I love chai, and I have several recipes but I'm always looking for more. The local coffee place that makes the best chai uses a mix and the final product is creamy but low in fat. The recipes I have, that are just as creamy, require sweetended condensed milk which makes it rather high in fat. I have tried the low fat/ fat free versions of cond. milk at the stores but they add a strange too sweet taste to it. Any ideas? Thanks in advance, Svadhisthana ![]()

| Make your base really strong. Sweeten as you like and then use evaporated milk. I know it's not low in fat but it's delicious. It's the way a someone from Bangladesh had made it for me once.

| Hi Svadhisthana, Just for you. Masala Chai (Spiced Tea) (serves 2) 1 pint water A 1 inch stick of cinnamon 8 cardamom pods 8 whole cloves 6 fl. oz milk 6 teaspoons sugar (or to taste) 3 teaspoons any unperfumed, loose black tea Put the water in a saucepan. Add the cinnamon, cardammon, and cloves and bring to a boil. Cover, turn heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Add the milk and sugar and bring to a simmer again. Throw in the tea leaves, cover, and turn off the heat. After 2 minutes, strain the tea into two cups and serve immediately. ![]()

| I have seen evaporated skim milk in the store. Can you find it where you live? It was either Carnation or Pet brand. Try this link: http://www.odie.org/chai/recipes.html for chai recipes. I typed 'chai recipes' in Google.com, and got lots of listings.
