Instant Vanilla Chai Mix (Source : http://www.foodiewithfamily.com/instant-vanilla-chai-mix-make-ahead-mondays/ )
Ingredients
1½ cups instant unsweetened tea
powder (I use Nestea.)
2 cups granulated white sugar
1 cup non-fat instant dry milk
powder
1 cup plain non-dairy creamer
powder
1 cup French vanilla or vanilla
non-dairy creamer powder
1 tablespoon ground ginger
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cardamom
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
(This is optional, but makes the chai spicier.)
¼ teaspoon grated nutmeg
⅛ teaspoon ground cloves
Instructions
Add all of the ingredients to a
large mixing bowl and whisk until evenly combined. Process 1 cup at a time in
pulses in a blender or food processor until it is a fine powdery consistency
much like powdered sugar. Wait until the dust in the blender or processor dies
down before removing the lid, then spoon into airtight containers for storage.
Repeat until all of the mixture has been finely powdered.
Tightly covered, this mix is good
for 6 months to a year, stirring every so often to prevent clumping.
For Gift Giving:
Divide the powdered mix between small 4 or 8 ounce jars. Label jars with
instructions on how to prepare the chai.
Cute idea! I love giving kitchen gifts!
