Notes
Chai masala-infused gin
Place 4-5 tbsp. chai masala (chai-black tea, masala-spice blend) in a 750ml gin bottle (floral gin works well here). Invert and let sit for 1½-2 hours, inverting occasionally. Do not oversteep or it will become bitter. When the flavor is to your liking, fine strain and bottle for use.
