## Notes

* firstly, if you do not like spices, skip all of them. this will be a plain tea.

* furthermore, adjust the consistency of your tea with the milk. if you do not like thick masala chai, reduce the quantity of milk and increase the water.

* also, add milk and get to a boil just before serving.

* finally, you can use masala tea powder if you do not have spices.
