To bring out the flavor, it is preferable to crush the cloves and cardamoms. There are green and brown cardamoms. The brown cardamoms are quite strong in flavour and smell and just a little bit almost always hits the right spot and makes that cup of chai more flavourful. Try and include them in your chai mix. You will definitely notice the difference.
You can either ground the spices as needed or make a batch of the chai mix in a spice blender and store it in a bottle. The chai mixture can stay in your spice cupboard and you can use it as required.
For two cups of tea, use one clove, two green cardamoms, four to five fennel seeds, a sliver of cinnamon stick and a very small piece of brown cardamom and crush them. They donīt have to be crushed into a fine powder. Just bruise them enough so the flavours are released.
