Learn how to make the spicy Indian tea drink in under three minutes in this "video recipe" from documentary filmmaker Eric Slatkin. Masala chai literally means "mixed-spice tea," and there are many possible variations, Slatkin says: 

Tea was first brought to India by the British in the 17th century. The Indians took one taste of the Brit's char and decided to make something a bit more flavorful. There are countless recipes for Chai, some with mint, others with lemongrass -- each decadent and worth trying.

The catchy soundtrack is a song from the 1971 Bollywood hit, Hare Rama Hare Krishna. Don't miss the previous video recipe in the series, How to Make Vietnamese Coffee.
