Its earliest form consisted only of a mixture of seasonings and no tea leaves. The British, during their colonial occupation of India, added leaves from the Camellia sinensis plant, as well as milk and sweetener, to the beverage and served it in a variety of forms.
Today, chai is renowned for the numerous health benefits it provides, which are a direct result of its constituents. These constituents and their respective health benefits include black pepper and ginger, which assist digestion, cloves, which alleviate abdominal pain, cardamom, which improves mood, and cinnamon, which promotes lung and heart health.
