If you’ve ever woken up in a mountain village — to the sound of rustling pine leaves, a rooster calling somewhere in the distance, and the aroma of freshly crushed spices simmering on a wood-fired stove — you know that chai in the Himalayas is not just a drink.
It’s a ritual.
A memory.
A moment of peace in a world that rarely slows down.

That’s the energy behind Pahari Haat’s Kadak Pahari Masala Chai — a bold, aromatic blend made with the goodness of 20 Himalayan herbs and spices, hand-pounded, hand-blended, and rooted in the soul of Uttarakhand.

And today, we’ll brew it the way the mountains taught us — slow, mindful, and full of flavor.

What Makes Pahari Haat’s Masala Chai Truly Himalayan?

Before we brew, let’s talk about why this chai tastes like no other.

Unlike regular masala chai recipes that use 4–5 spices, Pahari Haat blends 20 powerful herbs and spices, including:

• Cardamom

• Cinnamon

• Ginger

• Licorice

• Bay leaf

• Clove

• Black pepper

• Fennel

• Ajwain

• Pipli

• Star anise

• Jeera

• Methi

• Javitri

• Tulsi

• Nutmeg

• Turmeric

• Flaxseed

• Brahmi

• Ashwagandha

And the base?
Strong-bodied CTC tea from Upper Assam, chosen for its deep color and bold taste that perfectly complements Himalayan aromatics.

This isn’t factory-made chai.
It’s handcrafted by women artisans, ethically sourced, and packed in eco-friendly packaging — a blend that carries the warmth of Himalayan kitchens and the purity of mountain living.

How to Brew the Perfect Kadak Pahari Masala Chai (Step-by-Step Recipe)

A National Geographic–style Himalayan chai experience

Step 1: Start With Pure Water

Every perfect chai begins with good water.
Heat 1 cup of filtered or spring water — imagine it bubbling like a tiny mountain stream.

Step 2: Add Pahari Haat Masala Chai

As the water begins to dance, add:

1 to 1½ teaspoons of Kadak Pahari Masala Chai.
Immediately, the spices rise — the cardamom opens, the ginger tickles your nose, and cinnamon warms the air.

Step 3: Let It Simmer Gently

Lower the flame.
Let the tea leaves unfurl and the spices release their stories.
This is where the magic happens — a minute of stillness, aroma, and anticipation.

Step 4: Add Milk (Optional but Magical)

For a strong Himalayan-style chai, add:

• ½ cup milk (dairy or plant-based)

Watch the tea turn into a beautiful deep caramel color — a shade that only true Kadak chai can create.

Step 5: Sweeten the Moment

Add jaggery, brown sugar, or honey as per your preference.
In the hills, sweetness is always gentle — just enough to lift the spices, not overpower them.

Step 6: Strain & Sip Slowly

Pour it into your favorite cup.
Hold it.
Feel the warmth.
Breathe in the steam.
And take that first sip — bold, earthy, spicy, comforting.

A cup that feels like home.
