recipe: chai syrup
Comfortably warm through the winter: With this homemade syrup in the soulbottle, your next cup of chai is always at hand! Perfect for anyone who needs a change from mulled wine and punch, or who's looking for a meaningful gift.
Our syrup has the potential to sweeten the dreary winter! The recipe is quite simple, warms cozy winter nights, and tastes great in many combinations: with some frothed plant-based milk, hot tea, or even on the rocks with a splash of rum. And when presented in a chic soulbottles water bottle, this syrup makes it twice as good a gift. So you're giving a little bit of love in a bottle, and more than just gimmicks.
Our recipe results in a filled 0.6 l soulbottle.
ingredients:
3 cinnamon sticks
6 cardamom pods
8 cloves
15 peppercorns
750 ml water
3-4 tbsp loose black tea
120 g cane sugar
1 walnut-sized piece of ginger
and this is how it works
-
Roast the spices (except the ginger) in a saucepan for 2 minutes.
-
Now add the water and ginger and let the pot simmer on low heat for 20 minutes. Caution: Too much heat can make the chai bitter!
-
Remove the pot from the heat, add the tea and let it steep for 10 minutes.
-
Pour all the liquid through a fine sieve and pour it back into a pot.
-
Then add the sugar and let it simmer for another 5-10 minutes until a slightly thick syrup forms.
-
Let the syrup cool slightly and pour it into your soulbottle. The perfect sustainable Christmas gift is ready.
