For us chai lovers, nothing comes close to the comfort of wrapping our hands around a hot cup of chai and enjoying it with some snacks. No matter the season or situation, a kadak chai sets everything right! And the best part is that we all have our different ways of making it. Some might like it with less milk, some like it with hints of hard spices and ginger, and some might even enjoy it with no sweet. Even though there is no one way to make chai, the essential ingredients always include water, tea leaves, sugar, milk, ginger, and spices. But what if we told you that a new variation in chai comes with butter? Would you still try it?
