Home-Made Chai Spice Mix 🫚

• 3 tsp Ginger
• 2 tsp Cinnamon
• 1 tsp Cardamom Powder
• 1 tsp Cloves 
• 1 tsp Allspice
• ¼ tsp Black pepper

I ground the cinnamon, cloves and black pepper from whole spices as that’s what I had in my pantry but you can easily buy them already ground from a supermarket. It’s handy to have both in your pantry whole and ground so I tend to keep mine whole and grind small quantities as and when I need them. You can use old jars to store them but don’t forget to label up what they are.

I’ve had this grinder for years and use it for grinding coffee beans too. It’s a bit more money than some but you can use wet ingredients in it too and it has lasted really well and is easy to clean. I actually bought mine in 2009 and it’s still going strong.

I use this chai spice mix for a number of recipes and uses…

1. 2tsp in my air fryer muffins recipe here
2. As a sprinkle on a frothy coffee or cappuccino
3. A teaspoon added to the grounds in my filter coffee maker to add a an Autumnal twist
