Masala chai.... the preferred tea drink of India...

Masala chai.. with or without milk... is the preferred tea drink of India and can be found all over the sub-continent.  Traveling through the north, west and down to Goa,  I found chai everywhere.  The roadside stands serve chai as well.  I have developed more of a taste for "straight" chai (without the milk) and with lemon,  which you order in the Indian restaurants as lemon tea.  However,  the morning chai with some crackers is much more commonly served.  (commentary by Dr. Carolyn D.
