Elaichi Tea, Indian Cardamom Tea

In India, Chai is one beverage that transcends all seasons. Even in the sweltering summer, when you do not feel like having anything hot, everybody yearns for a cup of milky tea to boost their senses! And when that tea is perked up with flavourful and aromatic cardamom, it is all the more exciting to the taste buds.
