What is Masala Tea?
Masala Tea is a traditional Indian beverage made by boiling tea leaves with milk, water, sugar, and a spice blend (called “chai masala”).
Typical spices include:
Ginger
Cardamom
Cinnamon
Cloves
Black pepper
Fennel
These spices help warm the body, support digestion, improve focus, and create a soothing aroma.
With Xiphias Masala Tea, the spice combination is already balanced, strong, aromatic, and consistent every time.

Masala Tea Ingredients
Main Ingredients
✔ Xiphias Masala Tea – 1.5 to 2 teaspoons
✔ Water – 1 cup
✔ Milk – ½ to ¾ cup
✔ Sugar – as needed
Optional Enhancers (if you want stronger chai)
A small piece of crushed ginger
1 extra cardamom pod
½ inch cinnamon stick
How to Make Masala Tea (Step-by-Step)
1. Start by Heating the Water
Take a pan and pour in a cup of water. Put it on medium heat and let it come to a proper boil—don’t rush this part.
2. Add Xiphias Masala Tea
Once the water is bubbling, sprinkle in about 1.5–2 teaspoons of Xiphias Masala Tea.
Give it a moment on the flame so the spice mix can open up and release its aroma.
3. Pour in the Milk
Now add ½ to ¾ cup of milk, depending on how strong or mild you like your chai.
A little more milk makes it richer; less milk keeps it sharp.
4. Add Sweetness
Add sugar to your liking. For most people, 1–2 teaspoons give a balanced flavour.
5. Let It Brew Slowly
Keep the flame low and allow the tea to gently simmer for 3–4 minutes.
This slow brew ensures the spices blend smoothly with the tea and milk.
6. Strain and Enjoy
Strain the tea into your cup and sip your fresh, hot Masala Tea.
Perfect Masala Tea Tips
Don’t boil on high flame — simmering enhances flavor.
Add milk only after spices boil — this keeps the aroma strong.
Use fresh milk for a smooth, creamy texture.
Do not over-boil — it can make tea bitter.
Use Xiphias Masala Tea for consistency and correct spice balance.
Variations You Can Try
1. Strong Kadak Masala Chai
For people who like their chai to really wake them up, just add a little more tea than usual and let it stay on the flame a bit longer. The flavours turn fuller and deeper.
2. Ginger Masala Chai
If you want something warming, drop a few pieces of freshly crushed ginger into the boiling water. It blends with the spices and gives a nice bite to the cup.
3. Masala Tea Without Sugar
Those avoiding sugar can still enjoy a sweet cup. Just stir in a small spoon of Xiphias Stevia Powder — it sweetens gently without changing the chai taste.
4. Vegan-Style Masala Chai
Don’t want dairy? No problem. Oat milk or almond milk works surprisingly well. They keep the chai creamy but much lighter on the stomach.
5. Light Masala Chai
On days when you want a softer cup, simply add a little more water and reduce the milk. It’s still flavourful, but not too intense.
