My grandparents, parents, aunts, and uncles all begin their days with a cup of hot masala chai. I am a coffee drinker on the weekdays; however, when the weekend comes around I start my mornings with masala chai as well.
I began drinking masala chai when I was in high school and had to stay up late into the night to study for school. My dad would often make me a cup of chai to help me stay awake.
I can't remember a time when my dad was not the first person awake and making chai in the mornings. Even now, when I go back home, my dad always makes a cup of chai for me when I wake up. If he has to leave for work and I'm still asleep, he will make it and leave it for me to drink later.
I figured there is no better way to start this blog than with masala chai, even if this is one Indian item I have been making for several years!
