Place the ground cardamom in a tea bag, or muslin bag, if you don't want cardamom sediment in your chai. The Spice House offers muslin bags to hold all of the spices and tea for less overall sediment in your chai.

I have a question about the ingridents. You mention adding bay leaves, but European bay leaves or Turkish bay leaves are not used in Indian cooking. They do use a “bay leaf” called the “Indian bay leaf”, more correctly called by it’s Indian name, “Tejpata”. It is completely different.
Do you mean to use the Tejpata leaf?
This is my favorite winter afternoon pick-me-up. I prepare one batch for now and combine the spices for a second batch in a pint jar to store in the frig. Shortens prep time.
How do you boil the ingredients without adding the milk?
Very good. I used dark brown sugar and used 1/3c. This is a great recipe.
