Black tea promotes heart, gut, and immune health while reducing stress. Cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, fennel, and black peppercorns all provide anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and blood sugar–balancing properties. Ginger and anise support digestion and immunity, while fennel and cardamom enhance respiratory and hormonal balance. Together, these spices aid circulation, boost focus and energy, and promote overall well-being. Chili peppers also naturally contain capsaicin, the compound responsible for their characteristic heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ePreparation of 90 Degree Chai:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eIn a pot, bring water to just to the boil, reduce to simmer, add tea, approximately one teaspoon of the tea in about 8 ounces of water, and simmer for around 3 - 4 minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eAdd milk in a ratio of about 1\/4 milk (of choice) to 3\/4 water and simmer for an additional two minutes.
