But there were two things missing from it: alcohol and the ability to get it outside of Universal Studios.

Unfortunately, the chai concentrate from certain coffee chains is too sweet. But there is something better. It never occurred to me to make my own chai. (Certainly it must be too hard.) Here are the ingredients you’ll need: cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, star anise, cloves, black pepper, nutmeg, orange zest, tea bags, brown sugar, honey, and vanilla.

Once the water has come to a boil, remove the pot from the heat and add the tea bags.

Now you are left with delicious, homemade chai concentrate. Description. Fabulous Homemade Bread Recipe. Homemade Soft Pretzel Bites.

Most of my early food memories had to do with all the garlic dishes that my grandmother made. Preschool-me was so fascinated by the fact that Grandma smelled like garlic 24/7 and I was always so amazed that something so small could create so much flavor.

Loving garlic is in my blood. When I make something with garlic in it, I tend to go nuts and use way more garlic cloves than necessary because I love using it. Every time I make these garlic knots, I usually use six to eight cloves rather than the four stated by the recipe. Maybe it seems excessive (or maybe it’s not enough) but six is perfect for me.
