There is no fixed method for making masala tea and many families have their own recipes. There are a huge number of variations, but all the same is the presence of four ingredients: tea, sweetener, milk and spices. Wikipedia®

Lena, thank you very much for the recipe! Just flew in from India, brought tea and spices. By the way, the masala also brought tea. I don't have time to cook in the morning, but I want to. This recipe comes in handy: so fast!

Store the concentrate in the refrigerator for no more than one week or freeze it.
And it is probably more convenient to freeze in portions in ice molds?

To health, Chef!
Yeah, it's better to freeze in ice molds. In the heat, you can also make iced tea with such ice cubes.

In the photo, not anise, but star anise. The recipe mentions "stars", and the star anise fruits look like stars. Anise fruits are in the form of umbrellas.
Elven
It meant star anise, aka star anise
Svetta
I sit drinking this tea.I won't say that I am delighted, but the taste is spicy, interesting, not disgusting (as my husband was afraid). Rather, this is tea for the morning, now I'm afraid to drink a lot, I can not sleep.
I'll get drunk tomorrow morning, cool tea!
Elven
Sveta, of course, it's better to drink it in the morning instead of coffee
Farida
I like masala tea, but there is no time to brew in the morning, and this is the way out! I will definitely brew it tomorrow, otherwise winter seems to have come and this tea is very handy, as warming, invigorating, and also satisfying, after it I don't feel like eating for a long time. Thank you!
Elven
Farida, to your health! I also think that this tea is a godsend in winter. It's cold at work, you get cold there, but at home you can warm up with miracle tea
