How to Make Vedi Chai

Four simple steps to a perfect cup, the traditional way.

1
Boil
Bring 1 cup of water to a boil and add 1 heaped teaspoon of Vedi Chai blend.
2
Simmer
Let it simmer on low-medium heat for 2-3 minutes, until the spices release their aroma and the water turns a deep amber.
3
Add Milk
Add ½ cup of milk (any milk of your choice) and let it simmer for 2 more minutes until it reaches a rolling boil.
4
Strain & Serve
Add jaggery or sugar to taste, strain into your favourite cup, and serve piping hot.

Brewing Tips

For a stronger, kadak cup, simmer the tea 1-2 minutes longer before adding milk.
Crush the spices lightly with a mortar and pestle before boiling to release more flavour.
Always simmer on low-medium heat — a rolling boil for too long can turn the tea bitter.
Use fresh, cold water for the first boil; it draws out the flavour better than hot tap water.
Store your Vedi Chai in an airtight container away from direct sunlight to preserve freshness.

Prefer It Without Milk?

Vedi Chai works beautifully as a black tea too. Simply boil the water and blend together for 4-5 minutes, strain, and add honey or jaggery to taste. This is the traditional way to enjoy our Tulsi Wellness Chai in the evening.

Serving Suggestions

Best enjoyed hot, alongside a plate of nankhatai biscuits or roasted chana. For a festive touch, garnish with a pinch of dried rose petals or a small piece of cinnamon bark on the saucer.
