Cinder Cadence
Chai in a bone paper
A chai in a bone paper, #880 of 999. Neon light, marble counter. Foam on the surface. Common, roast score 126.4.
The recipe
5 g masala · 120 ml water · 120 ml milk · 4 min
- Crack the whole spices — clove, star anise, cardamom — and simmer them in water for 4 minutes before the tea goes anywhere near it.
- Add the leaf and 120 ml of milk, and bring it up to the rise three times without letting it boil over.
- Strain into the paper. Sweeten in the pan, not at the table.
- Spoon the foam on last so it sits proud of the rim rather than folding in.
