2. Origins
Chai beverages are made in varieties all around the world, but the process is the same. A potent mix of spices is steeped in milk and brewed to be quite strong. The drink originated in India 5000 years ago when a king ordered a healing tea. A drink with several healing spices began to circulate across India where each region made it its own version. The original chai tea didn't actually contain any tea. The tea was added in the 1800's after the discovery of tea plants in India. Using milk and sugar were added at this time as well.
