I love how you present the authentic chai without putting down Starbucks. I’m Japanese and I feel the same way about westernized sushi😂

Finally someone who is Indian origin and actually knows how to make the real recipies, i mean, whenever I ask someone who is Indian but doesn't stay here to make chai all I get is a death stare, or when I'm lucky I'll get a black tea bag in microwaved water😭

I had a professor from India and he was very friendly. He would invite us to his home for meals. His wife, Nirmala, was mildly disabled from a stroke and would make us delicious food. I always wanted to help her because of her limp. She taught me to make chai. It was so delicious! I still make it. She has since passed on, but I will never forget my time spent with her.

"What did you just say?? CHAI TEA?! CHAI MEANS TEA BRO!! You're saying tea tea."

This is so wholesome! It's rare you see a person be like "this food isn't exactly authentic to my culture but if you like it and think it tastes good that's okay."

As m an INDIAN I almost had a heart attack when she put ice in chai!!

my dad went to India when I was around 7 or 8. When he came back he started making all the foods and drinks that he had while he was over there, including chai.
I'm a senior in high school now, and one of my favorite things is when my dad gets up to make chai while I get ready for school. He packs me a thermos full of the delicious steamy liquid and I get to drink it while I'm on my way to school.
It's such a small thing, but it genuinely makes my day a little bit better. -
Miles Morales: I love chai tea.
Spider-Man India: What did you just say? Chai tea?!? Chai means "tea", bro! You are saying "tea tea"! Would I ask you for a "coffee coffee" with room for "cream cream"? -
one of my friends is from india, his parents are first gen, and the first time his mom made chai for us i couldn’t get enough of it i literally had three cups because it was that good. every time i go over she always asks if i want some and 99% of the time the answer is yes. my family is from sicily (i was born there, moved to the US when i was 3) so in return i always bring my nani’s handmade gnocchi or some scratch pasta and sauce

This is how you properly educate people on culture. You don't come at them with campaign slogan style verbal battering rams. And you definitely don't treat them like they're actually committing a mortal sin by liking food/drinks from other cultures in certain ways that are more to your own liking. Thank you for this breath of fresh air and awesome content 💚 keep up the good work 😀

I remember the first time I tried chai while visiting India. A transcendent experience, truly. There’s a chai shaped hole in my heart now, I definitely need to learn an authentic recipe.

i work at starbucks and our chai (while fine if you like it) is basically the easiest drink on the menu to make. it’s literally “chai” concentrate, ice, and milk. so no knocking anything who likes it, but i bet you would love chai authentically! like she says, the flavor of an actual chai will probably blow your mind. try making it sometime, or go to an indian restaurant and get some ❤

As a chai lover the color of the chai is tempting me.. Looking yum

My roommate in university was Indian, and every time her mom came she would make chai like this for us and it was the best thing ever ☕️. So flavourful.

I’m Russian and drink a ton of regular tea. But. My sister and I got the privilege to decorate a wedding for our friend of ours. It was an Indian wedding an absolutely beautiful. The cook had us try so much authentic food while we were there, so we also got to try authentic chai. Oh man. I still think about it a few years later

I’m from Africa, and we have REALLY amazing chai here too. Eastern beverages are just beautiful 🥹
-
I love how she doesn’t judge anyone for how they like things. She seems like a really friendly, caring, & understanding person <3
-
This is such a NICE way of phrasing it!!! You are so kind and welcoming to everyone. When someone lectures me on my “inauthentic” version of something it doesn’t make me want to try the real thing, it makes me annoyed.
-
Agreed! I live near an Indian take out restaurant (which is inside of a local gas station) and when you order chai, they crush the anise and other spices and it takes a long time for them to make which I appreciate and it’s worth the wait. ❤

I’m not Indian, but my mom has been a couple times and probably would have moved there if she hadn’t had a kid. I grew up with her teaching me how to make authentic chai bc of this, and I still make it almost every weekend💚
