To prepare chai
2 quarts of water

2 cups water, brought to a boil In a tea sieve, combine the chai spice blend and fresh ginger.
Put the strainer in the boiling water.
Reduce the heat to low and cook for 10 minutes. Add the nut milk near the end of the 10 minutes and continue to cook until the nut milk is warm.
