If you like chai, I believe you will love this as much as I do. As an added punch, I included some gelatin in this drink. I find the gelatin provides numerous nail, hair, skin, intestinal, and filling benefits. When I have this tea in the morning, I no longer feel hungry an hour after breakfast.
Boil water.
While waiting, cut up the ginger in thin, length-wise pieces and drop them in the bottom of the gallon jar, along with cinnamon and cloves.
Slowly add boiling water to the jar, and cover jar loosely.
Let this seep for 30 minutes or more, depending on whether or not you like a strong ginger flavor. (I often let steep all day to get a rich flavor.)
Then fill the remainder of the jar with pure water and store in the fridge.
When ready for a cup, boil as much base as you would like.
Put gelatin in your cup first, wait for the tea to boil, then add tea to the cup with gelatin, stirring rapidly.
Once the gelatin is incorporated in the tea without any lumps, add molasses, vanilla extract, honey, and nutmeg.
Add cream last.
Enjoy!
As an added treat, if you still have tea left once it cools, it turns to chai jello which my little 2-year-old loves to wiggle and eat.
