I had the opportunity to visit India a couple of years back, and got a chance to drink chai from a street vendor. His little store was much more simple than this man. The way he made his tea, the way he served his tea and the way he watches all his customers to see if they enjoyed it our not told me I was lucky to be supporting the business of a man who loved his craft. His tea was the best chai tea I have ever tasted. I've tried so hard to look for that taste here where I live, but nothing compares to that cup of tea I drank on that quiet little corner of the world.
I am impressed that he actually takes the time to grind the spice for each batch, and customers are willing to wait for it. In more fast paced cities (starbucks) we would just expect them to be ground and ready to go and wouldn't be willing to wait for it, and the sellers would feel pressured to grind them in advance.
@@FredrikSkievan i read that spices are less potent and fragrant if you buy the ground ones, better to buy whole and grind right when you need them to enjoy the strongest flavor, more time consuming tho of course
Having worked in the culinary industry I can say small vendors like this normally have fresh ingredients because they can’t afford to stock pile so they but the milk etc the same morning , now fancy restaurants on the other hand can stock pile and you run a proper chance of getting spoiled ingredients from them. So bigs up to this man 👍
This is not the same as Chai in the US that I am familiar with. It seems the high fat milk extracts the most flavour by pulling oil, root extracts and fine particulates from the tea and spices.. The rolling boil employed actually breaks the milk, causing it to separate. He uses the sieve to strain away the fat curds and loose spices, tea leaves and roots. What is left behind is a much lower fat whey flavoured with root extract, tea and spice. In the US we make the tea and then add steamed milk which is absolutely not the same thing at all. Very interesting indeed..... What do you think... Is this an apt take?
@@Dreadtheday the Indian method is probably better because since they boil the spices in the milk which has more fat compared to no fat in water, the milk is able to extract and hold on to the flavor from the spices. So even tho when he sieves it he loses spice particles, the flavor of the spices is well incorporated into the milk. The rolling boil is actually helpful because in India many people enjoy a frothy chai. Separating the fat gives the drink a frothiness. When he “pulls” the tea, he’s not only lowering the temperature, but also creating more froth
Of course you’ll never get the real deal of the atmosphere and ambiance and freshness of this filmed cup of artisanal chai, but you can get decently close approximations of this style of tea in many shops and in a form for brewing at home. I understand that one doesn’t necessarily want to go all out and grind each spice by hand and make it with boiling milk over flame or whatever burner you may have on your stove top but even K-Cups can provide a satisfyingly “exotic _enough”_ cup of Indian Tea, often labelled “Chai Latte” in North America. If you like your tea sweet, I highly recommend Timothy’s Chai Latte K-Cups. Maybe I should just be saying “cups.” Is Tassimo even still a thing? Lol! Anyhow, good luck on your Indian Tea journey!

Drinking chai in India is the best especially noticing slight variances in taste/recipe depending in which province you are. Some of my most valuable possessions at home are 3 fragile little terra-cotta chai cups which I dearly love. Amazing that it wasn’t broken on the flight back to South Africa. Seeing them takes me straight back to the streets in Kolkata where I got them.
Traditional drink, prepared in an artisanal way! It is admiring the effort he puts into preparing a drink, the most original and by hand! my respects for the work of our craftsmen!
I have tried endlessly to make good chai like this, but fail miserably every time. I’m a good barista, and make excellent coffee, but I would love to have the feel for spices that this man has. He is a master of his trade.

Can't beat natural fresh brew! So much effort and time go into the final product, it's must be worth the price charges! Love to visit India and try this real Masala Chai!
See that man's hard work just to prepare your hot tea in exchange of few coins. People like him should earn respect. Your few coins cannot make him rich but your small appreciation will put smile on his face to overcome the everday struggle of financial worries for his family.
This is the original and the best. Look at the ingredients, the way he pounded all spices powdery and didn’t use any water. How rich and spicy of his chai, it’s the best.
The most fascinating part of the video? This man has been at this craft for so many years that his actual body has formed to the shape of his instruments. Look at how his fingers have begun to form themselves around the rock, which is the way he has gripped that stone for years. That is crazy, my friends lol I would happily sample this man's libations
Watching this again - it must be one of my favorite masala chai maker videos. I've never thought to make it without water. My neighbors are from Punjab and they taught me how to make it. They boil the tea in water and masala, then add the milk towards the end, then strain. I'm going to try this way with only milk for special occasions. For those that think this is dirty or he's pounding the masala on the floor -- no, he's using a brick that stands above the floor. Nothing wrong with using your hands in cooking....we are Italian and would never think to use gloves for cooking and I don't know any 5 star chef's who use gloves. As long as you wash your hands before, your hands are your best tools. This guy's hands look very clean. The boiling would kill any germs if there were any. I would drink this without any worry. This is down home cooking...it's part of the charm of India. They've cooked this way for thousands and thousands of years, since the start of civilization. This is the only culture who really knows their masalas and what they are good for. Much respect for the cooks who keep India's population alive. The rest of the world can learn from these foods.

Jim Dim Who said licking a spoon is hygienic? Just look at the pot and the dirt it contains. Of course, it actually looks really interesting and maybe two hundred years ago, when water was not that available, it could have been acceptable... But now? I would look at it but never try it.
Observed the quantities he used and just made this at home with pretty old spices and bags of subpar black tea which I cut open and dumped out of the bags. IT WAS AMAZING. Surprising due to my bad ingredients. Now off to Amazon to find better ingredients! I haven’t had tea like this since traveling to India on business years ago. I’ve really missed it.
Although I don't like chai tea, but I would love to try this despite many warnings on Indian street food, I think the dedication of grinding individual spices by hand is mesmerizing and hard work.

@@CS-kw8jl Cardamom, cinnamon, black pepper, cloves, ginger (I use dried), black tea, sugar, water and milk. If you're interested, my proportions for 2 cups of masala chai are: 1 cup of water, 1 cup of milk (I dont drink dairy, so I use soy or oat milk) 4 cardamom pods, half tea spoon of black pepper, 4/5 cloves, half tea spoon cinnamon (some times more), some proportional dried ginger pieces, 2/3 tea spoons black tea, 4/5 tea spoons of sugar. If you mash the ingredients at the moment, it will become very spicy. You can always reduce the quantity at your taste or add more water/milk.
The taste of tea is really amazing. It's at tourist place, mostly foreigners visit the place and have tea. In video it seems like it's dirty but it's not that much. The tea seller wash everything. The shop timings are only for evening for sometime.. appreciate his hard work.
An Indian barista made mine with brown sugar once and it was sublime!!! I always make it at home now with brown sugar...and for a touch more decadence, I add about a half of a teaspoon of real butter and stir, just before drinking. Have mercy!!! Mmmmmm.
Tea prepared this way is awesome and the caffeine levels are increased by boiling as opposed to steeping. I found that out when drinking my own homemade chai tonight, what a rush!
I really like this film, it is very healing, the boss is good at cooking tea. If you have the chance, I really hope to experience this cup of tea personally.
Wow! What a master! That pour from jug to jug without a drop spilt! 😍 Assuming this would be SUPER sweet with all that sugar😬. But still, I wanted to reach into my screen and drink the end result. So much skill and care in a beverage. Love it.
Im amazed at hiw he was able to turn the ginger and the cinnamon stick into powder. I cant even do it thay fine with my mortar and pestle or my food processor
dunno if you already knew but it's dry ginger, and dry cinnamon (is usually dry i think), so it's easier to grind it down. They dry up the spices so they don't go bad soon i think.
Even some comments about the toes or unhygiene but I believe that this is a sincere and india's traditional Tea. I can feel it. And I love to try and buy.
Love this video...it's not only about making tea, but also life and culture. As a tea lover, I'd like to try this once in my life. If you know where this man is, please share me his location.....thank you :)
I agree, it is a powerful beverage! The delicious taste is a natural consequence of this carefully crafted recipe from many, many years of studying which ingredients generates specific, intended reactions in our physical, mental and energetic bodies.
Im from Mexico, and my neighborhoods are from india and they invited me 2 hours ago to drink this delicious tea, now i want to make my own Masal Chai tea, it was sooo goood
@@venanciotochella6181 siii, tiene un olor muy particular y fuerte que da sensación que va a saber muy diferente. Pero cuando lo pruebas si sabe a eso que dices.
They use a special rock.my girlfriend is Indian and she told me that.normal rocks will break eventually and put tiny little rock splitters in your food.
@@snoopolion i guess even today 60-70% indian houses have grinding stones(known as sil batta) for making turmeric paste and other masala powder we don't get even a single stone in food. its just depend which stone you're using sil batta is made up of sandstone
For a long time i was searching for a good tea receipe. got it from this gentleman. Thanks. I used to crush clove and cardamom and taste was not great. Pepper, cinnamon, dry ginger are lessons. And grind to powder, do with patience etc
You can make it in multiple ways and flavors Here is my recipe For 1 cup tea, half cup water and half cup milk, if the milk is high far milk, use 1/4 cup milk and 3/4 water. In a flat bottom vessel, put the milk+ water on low flame, never ever boil tea, it has to simmer at low flame. Once you feel the milk water has warmed up, add 1 tea spoon of tea powder, 1 tea spoon of sugar. For light flavour tea - crush a pod of cardamon and add it to the tea and let it simmer. For strong tea and for cold weather add crushed ginger. As you keep making it, you will know how long to boil/simmer the tea.
I remember the first time i had chai. It was at a tiny indian restaurant in London. Since then it has become my favourite tea. I just now made chai and I am proud to say it looked exactly like this one in the video. Being from the Caribbean, I couldn't resist adding bayleaf and vanilla extract though. Still a great cup of tea.

Nothing written said anything to belittle the man as being poor. We simply enjoy his ingenuity and the mastery of his craft.. I too was thinking of finding a rock and grinding my spices in the same manner.❤

@@nilvenet1346 good point! I guess it's all based on demand
@@FredrikSkievan once you grind a spice, any spice, it loses potency very fast.

This is such a great video: a proud vendor dedicated to his craft, the characteristic Indian street noises, great filming. It brings me back to India!
The taste of tea is really amazing. It's at tourist place, mostly foreigners visit the place and have tea. In video it seems like it's dirty but it's not that much. The tea seller wash everything. The shop timings are only for evening for sometime.. appreciate his hard work.
Respect from me, working really hard for the family😊
An Indian barista made mine with brown sugar once and it was sublime!!! I always make it at home now with brown sugar...and for a touch more decadence, I add about a half of a teaspoon of real butter and stir, just before drinking. Have mercy!!! Mmmmmm.
Namaste, 🙏 , I enjoyed watching the tea maker, thank you. He put a lot of good energy into making his tea, I know it must taste good .
Tea prepared this way is awesome and the caffeine levels are increased by boiling as opposed to steeping. I found that out when drinking my own homemade chai tonight, what a rush!
Haven't tried many Indian food/drinks, but everything i have tasted so far is amazing 😩
This looks amazing... I would visit this vendor everyday for his Masala Chai.
Stop hating and let this man work. Respect their culture
"I want clean tea." That's racism mate.
@@adrianparker3116 Tolerating unhigenic food becouse of simeones culture or skin color is racism.
John Dela Cruz LMAO bro Philippines is so nasty
I feel puke looking at this shit.
I really like this film, it is very healing, the boss is good at cooking tea. If you have the chance, I really hope to experience this cup of tea personally.
I can make world-class tea but I need a small investor
The way he pours the drinks is amazing.
Doesn’t spill a single drop.
두잔을 만들기 위해 진짜 엄청난 노력이 들어가네
저 재료들을 다 즉석에서 갈아넣는 ㄹㅇ 장인 ㄷㄷ
손이 얼마나 아플까
So tasty, and i really appreciate his way of making tea❤️❤️❤️
Hmm, chá artesanal que não faz nem um pouco mal.
Mejor me tomo un café con chocolate ya me dolió la panza de solo ver eso
@@caraaleatorio4597vai um chazin com um adicional de bactérias kkkkkkkk
Porca desgraçada
Let me know how is the feet nails in the chae.
Wow! What a master! That pour from jug to jug without a drop spilt! 😍
Assuming this would be SUPER sweet with all that sugar😬. But still, I wanted to reach into my screen and drink the end result. So much skill and care in a beverage. Love it.
I want to reach into my screen and grab his toe
? He spills drops all the time lol
@@Djellowman its a figure of speech
Im amazed at hiw he was able to turn the ginger and the cinnamon stick into powder. I cant even do it thay fine with my mortar and pestle or my food processor
Yep, suppose we have to get ourselves a brick and a big ass rock! Lol .
@@longhairmullet lol nahh im good. I'm ok with larger pieces of cinnamon stick i have to strain.
You need a stone from India, and do it with your toe close to it
@@henripurnomo8557 🤣🤣🤣
dunno if you already knew but it's dry ginger, and dry cinnamon (is usually dry i think), so it's easier to grind it down. They dry up the spices so they don't go bad soon i think.
That second brew surely was extra spicy and aromatic, just how I like it! Way to go, uncle.
Even some comments about the toes or unhygiene but I believe that this is a sincere and india's traditional Tea. I can feel it. And I love to try and buy.
Drink it from his toes
Wtf . Hygiene has nothing to do with tradition. Indians eat much cleaner at homes and this would be unacceptable otherwise.
Love this video...it's not only about making tea, but also life and culture. As a tea lover, I'd like to try this once in my life. If you know where this man is, please share me his location.....thank you :)
Believe me, this is real deal. Starbucks and other coffee shops in USA sell junk chai.
I agree, it is a powerful beverage! The delicious taste is a natural consequence of this carefully crafted recipe from many, many years of studying which ingredients generates specific, intended reactions in our physical, mental and energetic bodies.
Sure thing James, would love to serve you Chai with my big toe.
The foot flavor is the real deal. Hahahahha
@@evannez6907 yeah it is 😂
@@evannez6907 lol
Im from Mexico, and my neighborhoods are from india and they invited me 2 hours ago to drink this delicious tea, now i want to make my own Masal Chai tea, it was sooo goood
A qué sabe masomenos? Una especie de café con chocolate?
@@venanciotochella6181 siii, tiene un olor muy particular y fuerte que da sensación que va a saber muy diferente. Pero cuando lo pruebas si sabe a eso que dices.
I'm never gonna buy a mortar and pestle now, I'm just gonna get a nice smooth rock
some beaches have very smooth rocks it might be a good place to look!
They use a special rock.my girlfriend is Indian and she told me that.normal rocks will break eventually and put tiny little rock splitters in your food.
how did you not think of it yourself?
@@snoopolion
i guess even today 60-70% indian houses have grinding stones(known as sil batta) for making turmeric paste and other masala powder
we don't get even a single stone in food. its just depend which stone you're using
sil batta is made up of sandstone
Sir ji I can feel the taste. I appreciate your skill and dedication 🙏. God bless you and your family 👪.
The most tasty chai that ever drinks in My own life. The smell is only for travellers that visit india
Smells foot.... Sorry smells good
And with a smile on the face.
Lots of respect.
Greetings from Brazil.
Shukria.
He literally *ground* the spice!
ground and pound
Hahaha
100% ground spices 😄😃😇
And Dirt
@@1sagstermaster 🤭
What was the ingredient before the cardamom? I know ginger is typically used but what he used seems more powdery once ground by that awesome rock
Its saunt ( dry ginger)
Congratulations 👍🏽👏🏽🙏🏽👌🏽Always traditional food marking way is the best
For a long time i was searching for a good tea receipe. got it from this gentleman. Thanks. I used to crush clove and cardamom and taste was not great. Pepper, cinnamon, dry ginger are lessons. And grind to powder, do with patience etc
Before watching this I never knew the making of tea can be this interesting. Next time I go to Rajasthan, I'll must visit this tea stall.
I have wanted to know the ingredients for this for ages, I can’t wait to make it myself, looks divine.
You can make it in multiple ways and flavors
Here is my recipe
For 1 cup tea, half cup water and half cup milk, if the milk is high far milk, use 1/4 cup milk and 3/4 water.
In a flat bottom vessel, put the milk+ water on low flame, never ever boil tea, it has to simmer at low flame.
Once you feel the milk water has warmed up, add 1 tea spoon of tea powder, 1 tea spoon of sugar.
For light flavour tea - crush a pod of cardamon and add it to the tea and let it simmer.
For strong tea and for cold weather add crushed ginger.
As you keep making it, you will know how long to boil/simmer the tea.
Here in Gujarat, most people use just milk and no water. We like creamy taste.
I am very proud that this video crossed 5.7m views because I am from this city and I get drink it whenever I want.🥰
Don't believe you.prove it.
Note the timing and introduction of spices... Very important for that taste 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I want to travel and get a masala chai from this man. 😊😊😊
There's some pieces of feet nails too... Will taste good for sure.
Sou brasileiro é amo muito assistir esses vídeos sobre a culinária da Índia um abraço pra o povo indiano.
Se eu ver fazendo eu não tomo, é zero higiene. Mas parece bom mesmo
@@Ryagami muito bom olha os dedinhos do pé bem proximo ao preparo. Uma delícia!
@@UandersonAquino tempero a mais 🤣
@@Ryagami né 😂😂😂
Não da pra encarar não se ver fazendo, mas parece bom mesmo...
Delicious! Love street food when I travel. Great taste and geographically unique.
I remember the first time i had chai. It was at a tiny indian restaurant in London. Since then it has become my favourite tea. I just now made chai and I am proud to say it looked exactly like this one in the video. Being from the Caribbean, I couldn't resist adding bayleaf and vanilla extract though. Still a great cup of tea.
Tbh I have no issue with the "conditions" I'd be honored to have this man make me a cup of tea
Is it too much to ask that he doesn’t smash the ingredients that ur about to put in ur mouth nd ingest right next to his foot and on what is basically the floor
@@constructedtime899 yes I honestly dont mind. We need germs and minerals lmfao. Sorry your ideal reality consists of like super sterile environment. To each their own :)
@@joanne6047 Based on your response I've concluded you're a dumbass .
@@constructedtime899 Wow nice response dude. Very well and civil response. Guess someone didn't get enough affection in their life.😂 I feel bad for you.
@@joanne6047 k dumbass
For the uninitiated let me tell you that this masala tea tastes awesome and it's full of antioxidants. And it helps in digestion too !!
Not this guy's Dirty Chai Tea!
@@hiromamoru9144How is this dirty?
@@hiromamoru9144 If this is enough to make you feel squeamish, you clearly didn't know that there are even worse example on that country xD
As long as it so unigenic, for sure helps in digestion. You will puke everything you eat before.
God provides for his children no matter whatever the situation..Hearty wishes n blessings to all street food vendors for their hardwork, preparations, cooking and serving yummy snacks and meals to all the customers for minimal prices!! Thanks for your good work and passion!!......
I can’t believe that nothing got wasted when the man prepared the chai. He truly made it an art form.
did he bot some coconut in the chai
I can make world-class tea but I need a small investor
@@ajaysinghparmar2872I can help you out. You want to make 50-50% deal?
*Just wow amazing i just love masala tea love from pakistan* 😊
I like his attitude and dressing👌
I wish that i could try that masala chai!
The amount of skill and dedication that goes into it - I wish we could all have that much pride in our work.
Where is this please let me know. Surely I will visit someday.
That’s a real piece of art 😍🙏🏽
😂😂
😂😂
Its a Piece of something
this man's milk tea is the true definition of quality over quantity
Спасибо за видео!
Получила огромное удовольствие!
Чай у них действительно очень и очень вкусный!
Несмотря ни на что...
And you think that some of the fast food places you eat are so clean?
When you're so good at what you make that you don't worry about your feet getting splashed by boiling hot tea.
Tomorrow I will buy tea supplies and i will try to drink this indian tea. and i think it will be very tasty
Good. May god bless him.
I got a strange reaction from seeing the four seasons written in Japanese at the wall behind him 😂. Btw it was 春(Haru) - Spring, 夏(Natsu) - Summer, 秋(Aki) - Autumn, 冬(Fuyu) - Winter.
Yeah, written with Kanji and it's pronounceation in hiragana 😂 and so more he wrote his coffee's name in Japanese リンシュナケャイ喫茶店 😁👍🏻
paris france is the most visited place on earth and its most common visitor is from......japan! so it makes sense that other tourist places cater to the japanese visitor, i notice it is written in english as well.
@@patrickderp1044 paris? France? Just stay out thr. I had bad feeling on that. Sorry pal
Man literally wrote chinese, Japanese and English on his shop which is pretty cool.
春夏秋冬(Shunkashuutou)
So that guy sold that chai for a few cents, and this guy made $7-8000 by just recording that😂
These things always are so interesting to think about.
I'm an Indian who prepares her masala chai at home..... this recipe is good minus the filth!
Ma'am, can you please let me know what the white stuff he crushed is?
Gristle Von Raben sniff
Gristle Von Raben the white stuff is sniff bet you aussies like that
@@BroaddayAssassin what is sniff?
Is it only milk or milk+water?
Amazing such skill! Wish I could order a cup !
Excellent, I love Indian milk❤️👌🏻 .
For some reason it tastes better in those little clay cups from the railway platform sellers 👍
Estilo refresco do Chaves é de limão , parece tamarindo e tem gosto de 🍊
The attention to detail,expertise,skill and love of his craft took me away to his stall i could nearly taste his heavenly brew,i really wished i could have tasted this.Thankyou for sharing.
It looks delicious, I hope to go someday make a trip to India so I can taste the food or these kinds of beverages, grettings from MX.
tell thanos, the hidden infinty stone is in india
😂😂😂😂😂😂
They are crushing the stone to add flavour to the tea
I'm telling Thanos that you can't spell.
Who is thanos? And why does he need a stone
lmao
Waaaaaow superb and look @ the froth😍
Love masala chai and this man makes an amazing chai. Wish I could grab a glass straight through the screen 😋😋
Guys do you even realize this is a poor man? He’s trying to make a living stop making fun of someone. It’s not common to have a rock and stone to powder spices. T privileged here don’t understand a poor person situation
No one is laughing at him using a rock to crush spices. A mortar and pestle is common worldwide. People are commenting on how it's not very hygienic.
Nothing written said anything to belittle the man as being poor. We simply enjoy his ingenuity and the mastery of his craft.. I too was thinking of finding a rock and grinding my spices in the same manner.❤
poor dosen't mean unigenic.
chai is the most amazing tea you'll ever have! who cares about his feet? Do you see how hot that milk is and how long he boils it for? nothing harmful will survive in there 🙂
Would you eat shit if it were boiled long enough? naahhh..just joking. I would very much enjoy a cup of tea from that man..
Shuko Kato but vegetable ate that shit, n you ate that plant that ate shit. Basically you are 2nd consumer of shit, you ate shit coming from plant.

@@nadzrinpuad1283 id rather be second than first thank you very much.
Thats a cute theory you have but its not accurate. Nice try though
Nice video share korar jonnoh thanks 💝💝💝
Amazing! Imagine what this man could do with pots with handles and a mortar and pestle.
And a table
I love chai, but leave the toe out of it. It already has enough flavor.
TheBluRayCritic LOL 😂
You nailed it man! Hahaha😂😂😂
bona bona I cant tell if u literally mean nailed it or the other nailed it 😂
Indians live dirty
Lolllll 🤣🤣
